spend hours and hours with my modeltrain, wayback when I was a kid.

This Penn Central boxcar started life as a PRR but I patched it for PC. The prototype for this build lasted through Conrail in its PC livery so I thought this would be a great car to model.

I made the boxes for the interior load using brown paper bags.

The car is seen here on a friend's garden railroad for his first open house after completing his lovely mainline.

The Miniature Railroad’s story began in 1919 with a man named Charles Bowdish of Brookville, PA. Originally a holiday display on the second floor of his house, it moved to the Buhl Planetarium in 1954, and ultimately found its final home at Carnegie Science Center in 1992.

I took this shot of a foggy sunrise by the Adelaide to Melbourne rail line near Keith in South Australia many years ago. I swear there was no train in the original shot when I took it!

David Lee of Dundas, Canada spent 50 years making this elaborate model train set in his basement to 1/87th scale.

In 2017, it was moved to the McMaster University Health Sciences building at Bay St. and Main St. in downtown Hamilton.

Sadly David Lee died on January 22, 2019.

British Railways 9F number 92021 sits in a quarry yard on a cold and cloudy Monday morning, waiting for a clear line. This engine was part of the batch of ten with the unique Franco-Crosti boiler, designed to make them more fuel efficient. Note the very worn track condition, typical of privately owned sidings.
