I am a retired music educator and violinist. I have performed with many orchestras including Chicago,  Vermont, and New York. Besides those, many community, and semi- professional groups . My love for trains has always been a part of me but after seeing a G scale setup , I had to have that which is now  in  our back yard . I have about 800 feet of track with 3 loops . My only downfall with it is that my wife says, " I don't care what you buy , but it better not come out of the household budget " . She controls that  !!!!!!

I teach to support my habit and that  keeps me on a little bit of a  leash. There for awhile, I was out  of control and my train barn is evidence of that ....

My goal is to have the  " perfect layout " which we all know is not going to happen.... Dream on boy....w
