Sorry took me so long to get back here. I get lost in images and the fact they are train images doesn't help LOL I love seeing all the trains people are posting and brings back memories of so many I have been on. Never realized just how many until this week

It's all good. Trains are awesome and play a huge part in the History of the World. :)

In a lot of ways, both good and bad but my uncle was a train fanatic and since he had no kids, always toted me along if he couldn't get the whole family to go. I gave him a reason to act like a kid around the trains I guess

True. That sounds like a awesome experience growing up. :)

Cool! I also had an uncle that was a train fanatic! He channeled his energy into replicating trains/towns/bridges into scale model sizes, and more than half his basement was a functional work of train art! I'm not sure how many tracks he had, but it was awesome to get to see them when he was running them. :)

That's awesome Bamrz! My Dad and I did the same thing, just not add extensive. :)

If you ever make it to Pittsburgh around Christmas time... check out the Carnegie Science Center train display.
