I'm 17 now and think I've loved trains since the womb! I had some kids' toy trains when I was little and got my first electric train, a Playmobil G scale set, when I was 4. When I was about 5 I got a Bachmann starter set. I quickly started getting more and more HO trains and I had a 4x8 board with indoor-outdoor carpeting on it that I would lay on our livingroom floor to set up my HO trains on. When I was in about grade 2 my dad built me my first layout on a large "L" shaped board. I could run 3 trains on it and it had 4 sidings and a bridge. It just kept growing from there. Believe it or not, part of my current layout uses the original one, although I've made many changes to it since it was first built.
