This is an accounting of my attempts at model railroads N scale and HO or OO. I find it to be a lot of fun. I concentrate my efforts on The New York Central, Ann Arbor, Pere Marquette, Chesapeake and Ohio as it relates to the Pere Marquette, Michigan Central Railroads and my own Salt Creek Railroad. I am also interested in the Tuscola and Saginaw Bay Railway, the Great Lakes Central Railroad, CSX, Norfolk Southern, Union Pacific, and BNSF. You are welcome to give me advice.

Re-repairing My GLC Locomotive #391
After getting back my Great Lakes Central locomotive from repair at Brasseurs Electric Trains in Saginaw Michigan and discovering that it had not been repaired. I sent it back to have the job done right. The motor runs but the locomotive does not move. I also placed my N scale Ann Arbor and Canadian Pacific GP35's in for repair. Most likely the motors will need to be replaced in them.

Almost Ready To Start My Central Michigan Railroad Loop
I am $44 and change away from getting my Central Michigan Railroad locomotive out of layaway at Brasseur Electric Trains in Saginaw Michigan. I already have a boxcar from the Lake State Railway. and 2 tank cars that I will be using.
For now I will be using some of my old rolling stock to suplement what I need to run with the locomotive. I also still need to buy track I will be using Nichol Silver Bachmann EZTrack and 12 pieces of 15 inch radius curved track and 16 pieces of 9 inch streight track.
