Matt,
This gent like PRR Man says is definitely a transplanted easterner living in Sherman Texas which is about an hour drive north of Dallas.
He has a large metal building in his backyard that measures somewhere in the range of 40' by 70' which is a great size for O scale. The DFW modular club layout is also housed within this building and I believe they hold operating sessions each Tuesday evening. The layout is usually open during most of the local train shows that occur in October, November and January. When I last visited, I was told to BYOL(Bring your own loco). I had fun running two of my loco's for several hours.
Most of his PRR memorabilia came from his uncle who worked for the PRR back in the day. I enjoyed the memorabilia as much as the layout just because of the history behind the stuff.
I'm looking forward to visiting this layout soon to run some equipment and enjoy some O scale companionship and camaraderie. Here's a few pics of the modular club section of the layout.
