I've always enjoyed looking at them. My grandfather was an engineer on a old steam engine running through Michigan. We'd go on walks as a child, usually along some tracks. Him telling me this and that little pieces of information. See the rust there... not used much... what all the whistles meant. Sure miss that guy.

That's really cool. My dad is really into trains. He use to have a huge layout set up in our basement but when they moved to the house they are in now he had no room so it's been boxed for like 25 years. He built everything from scratch except some of the trains themselves. He use to bring me to meets and stuff.
