I have always loved trains.  My father got me interested in trains at an early age.  I particularly like the era between 1925 and 1955, during the "Super-Power Steam" age.

My favorite road is the New York Central, however I do also favor the C&O, Nickel Plate and Milwaukee Road.

I have an 8'x16' HO scale layout in the third bay of my three-car garage.  The layout features urban, rural and industrial settings.  It is set in mid up-state New York.
