I was born in Los Angeles and we lived there tell I was nine. My Pop would buy my trains at Colonel Bob's on Pico Blvd. That's were I first saw a layout with Gargraves Track. There was almost always a prewar 0-6-0 on the layout. I thought that was the most beautiful and detailed engine I ever saw. I got my 2026 set in 1948 but alway got things to go with it at Christmas. I got a KW transformer or crossing gates or switches through those years. We went to Colonel Bob's other times also, wish I had pictures of the place. Don
