Eugene returned to the hobby
after a thirty-year hiatus. He reig-
nited his love of the hobby and
unpacked the Athearn blue box
kits that have followed him from
childhood.
He built a switching layout, but
constant relocations for work
resulted in its dismantling. Not let-
ting the frequent moves deter him
from his new-old hobby, he switched to inexpensive light-
weight modular designs that can be disposed of without
huge financial loss.
He models a modern era shortline, and looks forward
to many years of enjoyable learning, experimenting and
mastering the many aspects of this great hobby.
