Define "college age". I know people who were in their 60's and in college. Do they fit in your subset?

I felt the same way when I was in college. There aren't many of us model railroaders out there, especially amongst the younger generations. It's a bit disappointing but don't let it get you down!

Hi all , I am not college age but have an email address of someone who is. This young man is president of his college railroad club. You might want to contact him. He could give you some good advice on how to start a railroad club if your college doesn't have one. If they do you just might want to email him for fun.

http://www.tamr.org/Andy_Inserra/

You will get a home page with Alco pics and alot of other stuff. Scroll down and look in the far left column for the words, "About me" , he gives you his bio. Also there are the words "Contact Me", a link to his email.

I wish you luck with your studies.

I hope you use the link. Andy is really good about answering emails. [;)]

Feel free to email me. I love to hear from railfans and railroaders. [:)]

While you all are away don't forget about us here in the forums. We would love to hear from you from time to time. You might even use the forums for research, there is alot of history here in the forums. If you need help or info don't forget you have a source of people here with knowledge who would gladly lend a hand. I am positive almost everyone here will agree with me. If you need anything just ask. [;)]

Also it would be interesting to hear which college you all are going to. If there is a railroad museum near, you might takes pics and share them with us. Railfans NEVER get enough pics. [:)]

Don't forget us, we won't forget you. [^]

Good luck and God Bless.
