Comments/Directions:
On May 21, 2004 my dad steamed up his engine for his first run around his own railroad. On the 22nd we joined him for some fun. The engine is a 1904 Cagney that originally was built for the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair. That year they used miniature steam railroads to shuffle attendees around the large fair grounds. When my dad got it, it was in pretty rough shape. 7 short years later you can see the results. He hasn't come up with a name for his railroad yet so I will use this one until he does. You will also find an inordinate amount of pictures but since it is my website I guess I can get away with it.
On Dec, 19,2017 my dad left this world for the glory of Heaven. I will forever treasure my memories of my dad and his railroad. See you on the other side, dad.
