Hello folks! I've made conifer trees using several methods, and I believe a multitude of methods are important toward the development of the total forest. Short, fat trees, tall-skinny trees, trees shaped like Christmas trees, and those shaped by the wind and the elements, all are important. I suppose I prefer trees with a more "unpredictable" look to them, hence my products that you can see at www.coastmans.com. I'm also a fan of bottle-brush trees and I like what I read about the pine-cone method! Tons of those around here on the Oregon coast so I'll be trying that. Thanks, Rog, Coastmans.

This unique Model Railroad Museum was established in November of 2024 as a non-profit community organization featuring ten operating model railroads in all the different major scales, a STEM Program for students, historical displays, group tours and clinics on how to develop your skills as a model railroader. It's definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.

Open 12-6 pm on all Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays through April, 2026. They will be moving to a new location after that. Will provide an update later this year.

Update: Aug. 2. 2026. Unfortunately, the MacArthur Center where our Museum was located has closed and we have been forced to evacuate our space there. Until we can find a more suitable place, we are temporarily located in a small office/store at 750 Lord Dunmore Dr., Unit #109, Virginia Beach, VA 23464. Our multiple layouts have been dismantled and are in storage nearby. The good news is that we have many items that are available for sale at greatly discounted prices. Our hours of operation are 2pm to 5pm, every Mon, Weds, Fri, and Sat except major holidays.The proceeds will be used to create a new and better museum once we have found the right location.
