Re: My Hobby Room
 

Your collection is awesome...you should convert a couple of those tractors to radio control.

Re: My Hobby Room

I have two loops of O Gauge trains running around the top of the room.

Great collection ..now you will have to start on the r/c stuff...lol then youll have a problem ..How much of your collection is 1/16?

Re: My Hobby Room
 

I dont know what to say its the best do want to swap houses lol:D

Re: My Hobby Room
 

Now that is a fantastic collection! The only problem that I see is that you may eventually run out of room. :D

Re: My Hobby Room
 

WOW !! And I thought I was bad . I got 1 loop around my living room with a 10' truss bridge and 4' truss bridge and still have to finish a 8' arch truss . I didn't get to the second rail yet .

A wonderful collection. Anyone that runs "The Texas Special" is very all-right with this Frisco nut! I model Frisco in HO scale during the orange & white diesel-era. All of your collection is first-class and I enjoy the combination of trains, trucks, or tractors.

Wow!, awesome accumulation of models Craig! I wish our tractor room still had that many pieces in it but seeing yours brings back some memories. And trains!!....looks like you've got all the bases covered when it comes to the different gauges.

Neat stuff! :)

Re: My Hobby Room
 

Thanks Alex!, most of the trains are O Gauge, four of the locomotives and a few cars are G Gauge.

Do you have any farm toys left Alex?

Re: My Hobby Room
 

Wow! Well maby we need to start a help group for those of us with a modeling problem. LOL

Re: My Hobby Room
 

Sign me up! Can I bring some toys?

Re: My Hobby Room
 

Yeah we've still got quite a few between Dad and I. I don't really have many of the older pieces like he does, just a couple that I picked up at auctions here and there. He sold the bulk of his Deere stuff to a guy in Kansas City a few years back, all except most of the Precision Series pieces... he likes to use those as bargaining chips when he sees something rare at a show that's worth trading for. Although most of the implements we had are still stored away in the attic.

Now he's working on collecting most all of the Deere industrial yellow pieces like the skidder, loaders, grader, etc.

Very nice toy room!!

Re: My Hobby Room
 

Yea, I've gotten some weird looks when I tell people I'm into R/C cars. Only because alot of people think first of the Cheap ones. Not knowing that there are very expensive ones out there.

Re: My Hobby Room

Re: My Hobby Room
 

That's a nice cart you have there. Who makes those?

Re: My Hobby Room
 

Spec-Cast. They made three variations, 66" tires, row crop duals and tracks.

Re: My Hobby Room
 

Very nice!! Your choice of how to display the collection really does makes it even better!

Re: My Hobby Room
 

Perfect timing for that grain cart Craig.....a buddy of mine in IL said they already started taking off corn early this week!

Looks great behind the Steiger!:)
