Turns out - my sis just told me a few years ago that my dad wanted to be an engineer. Not the electrical engineer he became but a railroad engineer.

But at some point I forgot what ?institution asked him what he wanted to be and he said, "an engineer". They thought he meant - mechanical, chemical, electrical etc, not the railways.

Now I as a girl/tween/teen and beyond was a "mix" of (the 50's, 60's and beyond depending on where) "girl", and "boy" interests. I loved fashion, and especially jewelry! I love(d) science, and did some sports. I played w blocks, tinker toys, wooden trains, and legos. I want to buy some legos again for a particular project.
Did have some as an adult. The Lego Store!🥰😁

So my dad since he saw I enjoyed the wooden tracks - no wonder he'd take me to see various model train layouts at different stores! I loved the different levels, the scenery, the various bridges, switchings, etc.

So - (like i need another game etc on my phone 😁 ) what would you [or any other fan] recommend as a virtual model train set up app? No rush. 👍
