When I found out I was going to be traveling for work in Dec 2015 and be only about a hour from Marty's I just had to make the trip. Dotty, Marty & Ralph were wonderful hosts. While we didn't drive trains (could have), I got to see one fantastic layout and great conversation with a great couple of fellow train geeks. Stopped in at Charles Ro as well just to see the place.
Thanks for let me sign.

WOW! I'm humbled to be included in such a group. Thank you Marty.
Sorry Ted but we only have red and blue sharpies in Mass. Green ones are against the law! 
Chris,
Good laugh!
Sure a list of who's who-- and did you notice how well the "lefties" are represented? Being a "righty" I always think the left handed folks are blessed with all the artistic ability... may be something to that...

Marty....good idea for you to add your signature if you haven't already done so. After all, you are the great friend to all of us and should have your name on the wall!!! Jim
Ben...(blueline4c). I thought I earned your friendship after I submitted your nomination for National Slim Fast poster boy?
Thats awesome!! Great group of people!!!
Marty, you're going to need a bigger wall!
We had a great visit from a very popular New York trainiac. At the TCA Convention in 1998 I met Dr. Malcolm Reid. He stopped by the house Saturday and we spent some time catching up and talking trains. Malcolm has a huge layout in his New York home and plans on making it larger. He had a great book of layout pictures covering all the great scenes on his layout.
COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!
I have spent many fun days at Marty's over the years. Here is a video from last year of his Weaver New Haven I 5 that he converted to DCS.
Nice conversion--looks, runs and sounds fantastic!
I am impressed, both by the names and by the number of them.
Tom, I have had many other Forum members before the wall. MartyE for one, Rich Foster and Steve from Ross. I may get him back. Gunrunner has family close by, and many others.
The one name that I want on my wall is Alan Arnold.
Marty....what a wonderful way to share the hobby....but why would you want to spoil your wall with the signature of that "Alan Arnold" guy..!!???..
Seriously....it would be an honor to have a chance to see your layout and sign "the wall". It WILL happen someday....I promise! You are a great friend and mentor to so many of us!!
Alan
Today, Dotty and I had a visit from Bob Bartizek. We had a great time running and talking trains. Bob has a great knowledge of the workings of our trains today. Bob is very well known for his fantastic layout in Ohio. Anytime any Forum member finds himself in my area, please stop by for a visit.
Bob was kind enough to sigh my wall. Thank you again Forum members for your visits.
Will you please smile marty.
Been sick Eddie. I will do my best. When I see your York countdown that will do it.
Love the Pats superbowl tee shirt ...one of many i'm sure
