This is one story anyone of us in railroading. <br />My 4th Birthday is when my father gave to me <br />a Roundhouse box car. It has sprung trucks a <br />metal frame. It has been 39 years and it is on <br />my layout today. It now has Kadee trucks but <br />the same trucks and paint job are the same. <br />My father still gets me things for my railroad <br />but red box car is my favorite. My father knows <br />model railroading very well. He has been in HO <br />for over 50 years. When you told about the man <br />in the wheel chair it touched a place in my <br />heart because my father is in a wheel chair. <br />He does most of his shopping mail order. But <br />when he gets the New Walthers catalog his eyes <br />light up. He calls and we discuss what is in <br />the catalog. He is my reason that I have loved <br />railroading all these years. When I get dis- <br />couraged on what I am doing I just call my father <br />and he sets me on the right track. So if you <br />get depressed just think back about your first <br />model railroad experience. It will make you <br />smile. May your trains run well. Ross
