My name is Terry Thomann, I am 62 years old and have been a collector all my life. I collected enough Civil War artifacts to open my own museum in 2000 and now am preparing to build a new museum in Fredericksburg, VA. I always wanted a Lionel train set, so a couple yers ago I started assembling a modest collection. I now have 3 post war steam engines, a great set of 2344 NYC ABA diesels and a small layout in my basement. It was 10x6 but I added a 4x8 sections to it and plan to add another 4x8 section later.
