My History

I have been a train enthusiast since I received my first train at age 5. For years, I collected HO model trains but always longed for the rugged toy trains that were displayed at malls and firehouses around the Baltimore area during Christmas. The day I discovered prewar toy trains in my grandparents' attic, I fell down the antique toy train rabbit hole. More recently, I've started buying Voltamp trains and Carlisle & Finch models. These brands were among the early pioneers of electric toy trains before Lionel rose to prominence.

My focus is the pre-world war 2 and 1 eras. Voltamp and Carlisle & Finch are the pieces I tend to seek out . I am also looking for pieces by Lionel, Ives, Dorfan and American Flyer. I am located in the mid-Atlantic region near Baltimore, DC, Philadelphia and Harrisburg PA but also travel around the country for work if you live outside the region.
