I have been a railroad enthusiast almost all of my life.  My garden railway has been evolving for over thirty years.  Experiments with different levels of detail and themes has come and gone as my interests change.    Not adhering to any particular doctrine.  I hope, as you view my films, that you see something in my films that inspires you.  Garden railroading is a fun hobby for every member of the family, as it involves many talents, of members of your family, to build a true Garden Railway.

About ten years ago, I re-entered the world of Lionel Trains, "O" gauge.  I built a couple of experimental layouts, then in 2020 I was able to construct a permanent layout in our attic.  The theme is a post-war type Lionel layout, with all of the operating accessories made famous in the post-war era.  I also have built some operating accessories from scratch.  I hope you find the videos I have made of my Lionel trains enjoyable.
