Hey Everyone,

I just wanted to share this special episode with everyone.

The Make A Wish Foundation Granted Carter's Wish To Visit His Favorite Model Train Store TrainWorld! In this episode Carter P. gets to meet Ken Bianco Jr. and visit the TrainLand Retail store. Carter was so excited to talk trains, be on TrainWorldTV and do his very own episode! We would like to thank the Make A Wish Foundation And Lionel Trains for helping make his dreams come true. We were very honored and humbled Carter wanted to spend the day with us! We wish Carter and his family nothing but the best! They were an amazing family! Very kind and down to earth. We had a great time the whole family.

Feel free to write some positive and encouraging words to Carter On The Youtube video!

...for my daughter as well. Yes, Make-A-Wish is fantastic.

Carter, you did a terrific job!

Kudos also to Carter's Mom, Ken Jr., and Lionel.
