[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by Bergie</i> <br /><br />What initially got you started in the hobby of model railroading? <br /> <br />Please vote then share your comments below. <br />[/quote] <br />My dad worked part time in my grandfather's department store. Both had a great interest in the toy department. The year that I turned 3 they recieved a mis-matched shipment from Gilbert. Grand-dad got a special price for dad on the Am. Flyer Commander set, dad got busy in the basement, and the next Christmas I got a wrapped box car and 2 pcs. of track. The big surprise was downstairs... where dad spent most of the day while little ol' me went back upstairs to play with my box car and track. That's where it started and I still have the whole set.
