Blog: Welcome to Trains in the Valley!
Blog: Welcome to Trains in the Valley!
Published by Corey Conrad
Trains in the Valley Blog
Firstly, I would like to begin by saying, "Welcome to our new Blog."
I started collecting HO Scale Trains before the age of 10. My life changed when I came across my old train set and began tinkering around again. A year later, I own a model train shop and have a major layout plan in the works. I'm very passionate about trains, but have much to learn. That's why this is an exciting new experience. I look forward to researching and educating myself and hopefully passing that knowledge onto you...
I enjoy the rush of catching a train when traveling. Most people like to avoid a crossing, but if you are reading this, chances are, you don't mind being stopped by a train either!
