Isolated But Not Alone!

We may be isolated but we are not alone!

If you are making lemonade out of lemons, you are spending quality time with your family, and building your railroad!  And, how can that be bad?  I would be working on my model railroad, if it were not for the production of the American Freedom Train, which is top priority right now.

Barb and I are doing fine here in Central, Oregon.  We are open for business and shipping trains!

We’re praying you are well, and staying calm and healthy.

Watch for the enewsletter coming soon.  And thanks for not forgetting about your favorite N Scale train maker!  (Could I be so presumptuous?)

Every aspect of the trip was professionally done.  You and Barbara were on top of every change and your matter-of-fact assurances speak highly of your professionalism.  Jo Ann is a retired chef  and we know what good food is, and the meals provided on the CZ trip were stellar! BRAVO to you and Barbara for…

Just a quick note to acknowledge receipt of my AFT Tool Car. Thanks so much for another Outstanding Piece of Craftsmanship! The AFT is my most prized “N” Scale collection. I had perceived that there were delays in getting this last car into our hands, but thought it was a problem with China. Your letter…

As a retiree of the Walt Disney Company I look forward to upcoming releases of the Disney Family Museum and Disneyland series.  Keep up the excellent work!
