For those of us who had the honor of knowing our friend Owen Sturm we all knew he was the best of the best! He always talked about his layout and what he planed to do with it and "Always" had a smile on his face and willing to talk about trains. Tonight I got an email from Floyd Seib complimenting me on the tinplate crane I bought from him at "Trainstock" at the NJHR 3 weeks ago. What I didn't know is that very crane was Owens crane! Floyd told me Owens wife was going to throw the old rusted crane away. Needless to say that old rusted toy I brought back to life is way more speacial to me now and I'll always think of our friend "paulinskill" whenever I run it!
