Post Body
Enter your post below.
I was naturally exposed to trains at a young age. I was often taken to my fathers business, and it was close enough to the tracks that you could see the whites of the engineers eyes as the train went by. I watched every CSX train that went by. Then we took a trip to washington dc. There was a train store with a huge thomas the tank engine display. My parents bought some thomas stuff and I was hooked. THe flame grew when my dad bought a cheapo life like F7 set. I was obsessed!!! My dad had over 3 years worth of RMC and of course, Model Railroader!!! I discovered the pile of mags about 5 years ago, about the time I got my first MR issue as a gift frrom my aunt. In 2003, i recieved a gift subscription, and in 2004, another one! My current gift subscription expires in January 2006. I am now in the process of building my first serious layout.
