I am a Train Novice and I'm not going to hide it. I have become interested in the hobby of trains because of my twin boys. Like most boys I had a train set as a child, but my interest in trains came and went. Now that I have twin boys who both like trains (one more than the other), we have put together a HO scale model railroad layout. I enjoy spending time with my boys working on the layout (still in beginning stages) and running our trains. I also enjoy taking the kids out to watch the trains (railfanning) at the local train station and even record videos of the trains running down the track for my kids to watch on YouTube. I'm here to learn more about Trains, Railroading and the hobby itself.
