Marty was a very close friend to me. Although we lived far from each other , we spoke every week. I miss our weekly calls, laughs, jokes, and even when i was stumped on a repair he was always there for me. He's truly missed !
My hat goes off to the NJ Hi-Railers and the guys who dismantled Marty's beautiful layout. It's beautiful that parts of it will be displayed in memory of him. In 2013 i built a model replica of Marty's home, Dotie and i worked closely getting all the plans together to do this. The best part of the model was, if you looked in the basement windows we put a panorama photo inside of his layout.
I was told that this model replica of his home will be on display on the NJ Hi-railers layout. Ben had asked me if i wanted it, i told him the best place for this model is on the layout where it can be seen by many.
Thanks, Alex
