North Little Rock, Arkansas. Been in the military for a little over 18 years and looking forward to settling down, starting a layout and to finish restoring my old Mustang. I left home just before the bluebirds went yellow. I sure do miss hearing those screamin eagle horns off in the distance at night.

Stan,
I used to fly over your area when I was a helicopter gunner. Used to fly at night. We used to go to Anniston to fly terrain following training in the mountains. Hope we didn't keep you awake.

Wouldn't you like to know...

It's no secret though, so I guess I might as well post it again.

Sorry JPMorrison I didn't get back to you earlier, but I'm originally from Brookfield WI, moved to Milwaukee-Wauwatosa border after college. I live right on Interstate 94, and about 4 blocks from the old Milwaukee Road Airline behind the Allis Chalmers complex. Are you from WI or familiar with Milwaukee?

Collegeville, PA where the Reading had a station stop on the old Perkiomen branch (The station has been long gone & the right of way is now a bike trail).

It's also a few miles north of the Reading/NS main line between Philly & Reading; some great rail fanning locations!
