Ron,
By chance have you been to any of the tracks on your side of the state and / or Ridge in Dundee? This is the time of many Fla. meets. Usually vendors and individuals buying and selling.

chooch, to tell you the truth i have never been to a riding railroad of any type. i know there is the big boots club near my house, less then 10 miles. the site says you need a apointment and i have no phone number. what i know about trains i learned riding freight trains when i was a teenager. longest trip was about 600 miles. did a lot of passenger train travel while i was in the navy. i was'nt scared of flying but i could always find a girl on a train. i remember the heavyweight pullmans and the fine service that used to be on trains in the 1960. most my life i had model trains. built my own track, turnouts, i really like to build anything. last model railroad was ho scale 12x40 feet run through a couputer with railroad and company software.
i have just started a 1.5 scale pullman car. the three 1 inch pullmans are sold. my price is cheap as i don't do this to make much profit. just enough to buy material to build the next project. like i said i like to build. ron

Ron,
Sorry you could not find Boots track or info.
Right this minute the best I can help you with is with the State website that list most of the Railroads.
Scroll down the page and you should be able to click on the rr`s and find contact numbers or email addresses.

The Pasco rr is in Crews Lake park I think rt 50 off I-75. There is a road detour to follow right now but easy to fo;;ow.
Largo is in the Largo city park, also next to Full size tracks.

I would be glad to help you more off list and welcome you to the larger scale.

Thank you Gentlemen.
It is rojam18801 who I am looking for. I knew the cars had been sold. However, it is the Victorian houses in the background that I am interested in. I remember that there was another post, perhaps to another site, that had detail photos of the cars and the houses. A lady on another forum is doing miniatures with a Unimat SL and I would like to have her look at those houses. Doll houses? Way beyond that.

Cary,

Iam almost certain the original post about these scale houses was here on Chaski. I pretty sure the OP only did the one thead about the houses he built. Couldn’t find the original post with a search. Maybe someone will remember where it is.
