Welcome to my little corner in cyberspace, home to a collection of websites I've been building since 1996. Please pull up a chair and sit a spell, especially if you like model trains, as there are literally thousands of pages to explore.
Model Railroading Websites
- All About Postage Stamp Trains is the definitive guide to a memorable old brand.
- The Birth of N Scale details the formative years of the model railroading scale.
- David's Modeling Journey chronicles my fifty-plus years in the hobby.
- N Scale Figures Database is for those interested in 1:160 model people.
Other Ephemera
- The Avengers Forever is about the cult British 60s TV series (not the superheroes).
- David Builds a Home follows my dream and provides context for my remarks below.

Monday, 18 February 2019. Sunday was a vacation day for my brain. I was in desperate need of not being productive, although I did do a few little odds and ends. Today it's supposed to turn sunny and hit the mid-40s, which is perfect as I plan to start the gutters.

Listening To...
Sergei Rachmaninoff, Piano Concertos No. 2 & No. 4. Can't get any more schmaltzy than Rocky's piano concertos, and these two not only stand out among his best works, but also sound "right" when played back-to-back. Good exercise for the stereo.
Please Help!
Owing to circumstances beyond my control, I won't be able to finish my home without some assistance. Thank you!
