Howdy .... I'm new to the forum. I tried to board this train several days ago, but had problems registering. .... Some might recognize me as "Heartland Division CB&Q" in the Model Railroader forum. .... Jeffrey Wimberly listed this forum as one to notify about his surgery. Crandell in the MR forum said he would pass the news about Jeff to you when I said I could not get here.
Today I received an email from this forum, and was able to board the train now. I'm glad Jeff's surgery went as well as could be expected, and I admire his couarge and determination. Many people could learn from his positive attitude.
About me and my layout. .... I live in KY. Prior to then it was MI and a bunch of other places before that. I live with "My Main Squeeze" and we have 5 adult kids with their spouses and a total of 6 grandkids. They live in other states. I grew up in IL watching CB&Q trains, and my layout therefore is a Burlington themed layout. My era is about 1962, but I do run a few steam locomotives as well as first generation diesels. I include GN, NP, and other roads.
Cheers everybody. Happy Model Railroading!
