Bedford, Massachusetts, 01730. We're the little town between Lexington and Concord, where the Minutemen with names we remember went to get enough musket-toting drunks to start the Revolution. More than 2 centuries later, and some of us are still revolting.

We had a very early narrow-gauge railroad up to nearby Billerica, and later a full commuter rail line running Budd cars. Now, they've all gone back to bike trails, although one of the old Budds is being restored as a park/museum attraction. My LHS is Maine Trains in Chelmsford, one town to the north beyond Billerica.

It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.

Kirkland Lake, ON, then Peru SA, then British Columbia, then...oh, too many places that I have been "from". If I were a Newf, I'd say where I've been to.

These days, Vancouver Island, a ferry ride and a 50 minute drive north from the City of Vancouver, BC. Dark, wet, and howling for much of the past week. Not like the Gulf states, but we routinely get 60+ mph winds coming off the chop not 100' from my seaward door.
