Hello,

My name is Curt, I live outside Orlando, FL and I model in HO. I have built two SW kits; The Deer Creek Mine and I just completed the Brass and Iron Foudary.

Next up will be the Blue Sky Freight House. I just wanted to introduce myself.

Curt

Welcome to the forum (community) Curt. We all look forward to seeing what you’re doing with these wonderful kits. I’m in the process of moving over a “Ken Karns HO Blue Sky build” thread from the original forum. I should have it over tomorrow so you should definitely check it out.
