I am a model railroader as far back as my memory will take me.  Marx, Lionel, HO, and even a short time in N.  I model the railroad I grew up watching in western NY, the Erie-Lackawanna.  I have a layout that is about 22'  X 12'.  Photos and some poor video can be seen at::

I have been a pastor for 35+ years and own a home for the first time with a basement well suited for my hobby.  Model Trains is what helps to keep me sane in a very stressful job.
