Wondering if this is the same Mr. Battaglia who lives (or used to) in Buffalo NY that formerly had a wonderful 'attic' layout which was the subject of not one, but two articles in OGR (I think?) magazine in the 1990s. The first was BEFORE a house fire basically destroyed the original layout and the second was after the layout was rebuilt/restored and 'rose from the ashes'. ? ? ?
PS - I had the good fortune to visit the attic layout (by tagging along with a friend) once and believe me, seeing everything in person was phenomenal.
