Video action and stills of my former house model train set-up, plus video of trains running on the Mendota layout, on display at the Mendota depot railroad museum. I have also included images of the models I built for Cherry, Illinois. All this content is in no particular order and randomly selected. I also threw in some old 1970's 8mm film footage my father did of my earliest layouts etc.
I miss my ole house layout at 444 Creve Couer in LaSalle, Illinois. It was a lot of fun but as I grew older and not having kids, etc. I felt I needed to minimize and become a minimalist.
In this video you'll also see some of my paintings and hear my music in the background.
I hope you find the video relaxing and enjoyable. Thanks for letting me share my trains with you all!
