First Train Memories

My first memories of trains is of the big diesel frieghts that would "run over" us as we traveled to my Grandmother's house on the interstate between Chatanooga and Knoxville , Tennessee. There was a huge Concrete bridge that spanned the highway and seemed like it was miles up in the air at that age. <br /> <br /> My first Model Train set was a Tyco Spirit of '76. I got it when I was five. <br /> <br /> Sad thing is I just took the remains of that train, the broken caboose shell, boxcar shell and engine underframe to the train shop to get started back into the hoby again. I traded them for my first new rolling stock.
