Hello world! Today I kicked off my YouTube channel by introducing myself and talking about the space I have for my model railroad layout, the Merrimack Valley Railroad. A name my best friend suggested as we both live in the Merrimack Valley, overlooking the Merrimack River and I live on Merrimac street. Plus it fits with my desire to model New England on my layout. Who knew it would be that simple.

Here’s the first YouTube video for my model railroad layout and space!

I look forward to sharing more videos and layout updates as the planning and development process continues.

Things to cover in the future;

• Benchwork design
• Track layout
• Layout theme
• DCC options
• Computer control
• Layout lighting, like Philips Hue
