Dad bought my first train as a kid in 1962-3 for Christmas. MArx O gauge and then a few years later HO tyco and then N gauge Arnold Rapido/atlas. Trains put away from 1973 until my sister bought me a 8E set with 2 cars in 1982-3 and for some reason and I had NEVER seen standard gauge before. Rekindled and became a raging fire of collecting and repairing and reproducing. Love the history and figuring out the stories behind the pieces
