Organizing an O scale 2 rail and 3 rail modular railroad group in the Little Rock area

I'm going to go ahead and organize a O scale 2 rail and 3 rail hirail group in this area. It's time to let people see what a serious model railroad display looks like!

Here's what I'm thinking!




A little Jewel - A beautiful little Pilcher in the Ozarks

Visited the First Methodist church in Dardanelle, Arkansas.They have a 100% original and functional Pilcher Pipe organ. So many of these beautiful little organs were trashed by "Toaster" salesmen.


Photos are coming!

Old Wicks Pipe Organ at St.Josephs Orphanage - North Little Rock, Arkansas

Old Wicks Pipe Organ at St.Josephs Orphanage - North Little Rock, Arkansas

This is likely a Wicks "Fuga". It is likely just three ranks:stopped wood flute,a principal and a string.
It is located in the balcony at the rear of the chapel. I am going to offer to get it working and tuned to help out the folks who now own this lovely old building at no cost to them.

I think this is looking pretty good!

I like how this looks!

Welcome to my blog!

I've been thinking about doing this for a long time. It's about time to get this thing going. I'll be writing about my interests AND my honest opinions. I expect to have a lot of fun with this!
