				From this humble beginning ...  
				
				  
				
				  
				... our dreams start to arise ...  
				
				  
				
				  
				... until at last we have our permanent clubhouse!

				Let's run some trains! 
				
				  
				
				  
				We pulled our modules out of storage and filled the layout room 
				
				  
				
				  
				The Narrow Gauge line snakes up the hill 
				
				  
				The old and the new 
				
				  
				Lots of activity 
				
				  
				Hobo sits at the boxcar door 
				
				  
				Doubleheading 
				 
				  
				Coming around the bend 
				
				  
				At the Station 
				
				  
				You want me to do what?! 
				 
				  
				Oh no! 
				
				  
				Willie at the throttle 
				
				  
				Tropicana, anyone? Jerry runs his juice train. 
				
				  
				Take a break and have a snack 
				
				  
				More trains 
				 
				  
				Something for everyone, although none of the kids are playing on 
				it.   
				They must all be in the other room, playing with trains!
