Greetings folks. I've been absent for a while because of preparations for today. This is the first day of my retirement. In preparation we have bought a house further north - in Duluth Mn to be near family. And we have our house here on the market. One of the requirements for the new house was a basement that could house the collection. We found one that is even better than I could have imagined. I have been blessed with a wife who understands and supports my passion for this hobby. She will have her own dedicated sewing room and from the deck we will have glimpses of Lake Superior.
When I finish posting this I begin the task of packing up the Northwoods Flyer Collection and dismantling the Blueboard Central Division of American Flyer Trains. So I thought I would post some archival photos in honor of how I have enjoyed the World's Greatest Hobby.
I have been reading the thread every week and will continue to do so. I will post some archival photos as I have time, and once we have possession of the house I can start posting progress on the new train room.
The adventure begins!
