Reply to "Model Railroader, No Longer with Us, Who Impacted You and Why"

TNCENTRR, I never filmed his layout or even took pictures tell after he passed. Here I was with all kinds of TV equipment in my van and never thought of shooting Jim's wonderful layout. All we ever did was run trains. I was going to finish detailing his RR but never got around to it because we just wanted to run that wonderful railroad. It really is a time machine from the 40's. He had wonderful stuff upstairs in the layout room. He bought many train stores parts when they closed down. He had boxes of receivers for the electronic cars so he installed them in cars that were never made to run with electronics. He put together a Lionel scale Hudson from parts.
