Scale Model Railroad Trains

Scale Model Railroad Thanksgiving Day

Today is Scale Model Railroad Thanksgiving Day in the United States and we have so much to be thankful for.

There is an enormous range of products to help us in producing a wonderful scale model railroad and many fine scale model trains. Scenery supplies, adhesives, paints, parts, and more are available like never before. Manufacturers a releasing new products all the time. We are most thankful.

There are many scales to choose from. Scales range from the micro-miniature “T” and “Z” scales; the small, popular and practical, “N” scale; through the most popular “HO”; through the traditional larger “O” scale; through special interest scales such as “S”, and the various “Proto” scales; toward the large scales “G” and “F”. We are also fortunate to have standards for these scales so that compatible equipment and accessories are offered by unrelated manufacturers. We are most thankful.

There is a wide range of books, magazines, web sites, publications, and other sources for inspiration and guidance in our scale model railroad efforts. We are most thankful.

So many people are joining in the fun of scale model railroading. It brings together diverse people - rich and poor, young and old, new and experienced. We are most thankful.

There is something for every possible interest and style of activity that can be found in scale model railroading. If you want to operate trains all day and all night following strict prototype rules or run them in circles on a circle track laid on the floor and everything in between, you can. If you want to create a miniature world from your imagination or precisely follow a prototype on a single day in time, at an exact location, you can. If you want to create rolling pieces of precision that are jewelry in motion or have funny themes with wacky equipment, you can. We are most grateful.

Have fun!
