I'm a Navy veteran and father of 3.  I grew up a half-mile from the UP Depot at Newton, Iowa and that forever put railroads into my blood.  Got an American Flyer "S" gauge when I was arounbd 10 and never looked back.

Recently, I sold off all my "N" scale stuff as well as the layout because of health reasons. Now, I'm going to go larger with On30. It's going to be a fun year!
