The Sipping & Switching Society of North Carolina is a group promoting higher levels of modular railroading.Our quest is for having stimulating discussions on topics of construction of lightweight modules,to in-depth switching operations on modules.Welcome!Now get connected with this group, comunicate with like-minded model railroaders!
FOR THOSE WHO ARE NEW OR OLD TO THIS GROUP AND WISH TO BUILD A S&SS SPEC MODULE,A GREAT PLACE TO START IS AT OUR FILE NAMED "HOW WE BUILD A MODULE." IF THERE WAS A PLACE TO "START" THAT FILE WOULD BE THE BEST PLACE.AS ALWAYS A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS!!!
**NOTE** this is not your typical modular railroad.From looks,design,construction,operation & transportion,it's unique in every way.
