Nearly from birth. Watching my dad run his On3 Grandt Line porter up and down his 30" long railroad on the basement freezer...pulling the 4 cars he'd built...that was what did it. It was far better than the LGB set we received for Christmas when I was 2 years old or the first HO set at age 5. The next best thing was seeing the Silver Streak freight cars he built in the '60s while in high school. My approach to the hobby became serious as a 15 year old. That is when I began to built craftsman kits, kitbash, focus on a credible reason for my railroads existence, and focus on having a rational roster of equipment.
