Model railway is a really fun hobby. I built an outdoor railroad with my father over several summers while I was growing up.
He had since built a very extensive indoor O scale layout. The quality of the landscape / scenery is really high. Unfortunately we are now presented with the ‘so what do we do when he passes?’ Question.
He has started to look for a museum to donate it to and trying to offload engines before he passes. It isn’t easy to sell these days, definitely a niche hobby.
Edit: grammar / typos
- readingnews 5y agoI think you are looking in the wrong places. I used to do MRR, and if you just join one of the big MRR forums there is a lot of help there for offloading/moving. I have seen people in your position find locals who will take/purchase it and use it. Literally try https://modelrailroadforums.com/forum/index.php https://modelrailroadforums.com/forum/index.php
- MobileVet 5y agoOh this is fantastic! Thank you… could be a good outlet for him to chat too, many of his friends have already passed.
