Reply to "The Passing of Tom from the Choo Choo Barn....."

Unfortunately, I never met Tom, but was fortunate to visit the Choo Choo Barn with my wife and young children in the mid 1990s.

I think what I'm about to say I've said before on the Forum. The Choo Choo Barn is the best model train shop I've ever visited, bar none. The layout in the shop was marvelous.

During this visit, I bought something I treasure. I saw Kramer Product O Scale metal baseball figures on sale for $150. I thought that was expensive back then, so I showed them to my wife, mentioned the price, and asked her what do you think? She gave the perfect answer, she said: you love baseball, go ahead and buy them. I did.

That was the beginning of my Popsicle Stick Yankee Stadium:
