modeling what your familiar with

[h2w]

how many out  there have the same issue as I do I grew up and lived in Rochester nh for most of my life, the railroads were B&M then Guilford, so that's where my modeling interest was with, Guilford sparked an interest in the MEC and DH.
then we moved to Central Pa and its Norfolk Southern North Shore Lycoming Valley, Reading & Northern, Delaware- Lackawanna. And with in the last week I did a little railfanning on the Delaware-Lackawanna and Reading and Northern, and that's where my interest is at this moment, so I have been doing research and started some planning, and the area of Mt. Carmel Jct Pennsylvania has good potential. then comes the word MOVING!! err  we might be moving out of state in the next few months. so now i'm in a dilemma start a reading northern based railroad or wait to see where we move and what sparks my interest... anyone else has these issues lol

I went through that when I was younger, focusing on Maryland and Pennsylvania modern lines, then California when I lived there.  Funnily, now I find myself drawn to a time when I was too young to remember railroads (I was three) and in two areas I have spent very little time in, the northern Great Plains (Minnesota and the Dakotas) and the Palouse region of eastern Washington and Idaho.  I'm in my late forties and looking to move across country again and haven't nailed down which of those two yet, but am focused on developing rolling stock and loco fleet that will work in either scenario for when I have a basement again.
