I grew up close to the C&O line along the James River. I only have a few pieces of rolling stock.
My first house I bought was within 100 yards of the RF&P line. I only have a few boxcars.
My grandfather started as a fireman and ended as an engineer with Southern and had a dozen relatives that made careers out of Southern. I only have a few pieces.
Not doing very well at focusing in on companies that I have a connection with.
Do have N&W, B&O, CSX, and NS.
