Greetings fellow HO enthusiasts! I'm Ray from Detroit, 45, and have recently brought out the old Tycos. They still work and in very good condition. I got my first set as an 8-year-old, "The Santa Fe Freight" and, even thought it's long gone, I've been hooked on trains ever since. In my late teens and early 20's, I began collecting again and one set I bought was the "Steel Hauler" by Tyco. The engine is the Alco 630 #1102, "Illinois Central Gulf" and I have added the Alco 430 and the GP-20 ICG's as well. I have about 40 rolling stock including 6 ICG cabooses. I hope that this is more than just a Christmas time hobby.
Besides trains, I have a lucrative full time job, married, 2 kids (son 18, daughter 13) and I'm a former jock (baseball and hockey) turned Harley rider. I've been riding motorcycles for 25 years but now I own my second Harley and it's also my first new one. It's a 2006 Softail Standard.
Hope to have fun on the forums as well as share info and see what's for sale on ebay. Take Care and God Bless!
