An old hobby - revisited

Several months ago, Amanda started me talking about trains. I don't remember for sure how it got started, but it might have involved a trip to the Hobby Bench in Prescott. As we started planning to design our new entertainment center, the topic resurfaced. I hasitated to build a layout since HO trains take up so much space. Amanda suggested an N scale layout instead. Then I recalled an idea I found in a book when I was younger. We could build a coffee table with trains encased in glass! Amanda liked the idea almost as much as I did and we started designing. We built the table and have yet to have trains running inside it. This blog will highlight the progress we make.
