While having extra time on my hands, I've been able to finish up something that has been in the works for a while -- a website about model trains, specifically Gilbert O Gauge. That's a niche subject, to be sure, but as a result it's something I've been able to cover pretty thoroughly. And my excuse is that IRM is now moving into the history of model trains.
Although it won't really be a blog like this one, I used Blogger again because I'm familiar with the software, and it's free. So take a look, if you like, in your copious free time. Comments and corrections are welcome.
That's quite a protean set of interests you have Randy :) I never heard about Gilbert O-gauge trains. I always liked their S-gauge equipment because I always found it to be more detailed and realistic.

I still have my fathers prewar AF 556 Royal Blue passenger set including prewar and postwar AF accessories. Thank You for publishing this new blog!

Randy,
ReplyDeleteI also had a few O gauge cars. For those less knowledgeable, when A.C Gilbert bought the American Flyer name, in the post war era, they re-designed everything and made true S-gauge models. I wish they had carried over the Bordon butter-dish car into the post war era.
The only remaining example of these Bordon tank cars is in the IRM collection.
