As you know,my good friend Doctor Wayne is the true creator of my collection.Whenever I have asked Wayne to either paint a locomotive or even build a particular passenger car or freight car that is not available otherwise,the groundwork begins with doing research for the desired item.Even though I am not involved in the actual building or painting process I have felt I have made a small contribution through photos and data found in books and internet research---it is also enjoyable in sharing this information when Wayne and I get together .When you look at the model when it is completed all the credit belongs to Wayne,my contribution is certainly minimal but it is rewarding for me.
