Born and raised on the Northwest side of Chicago. I've lived in various communities in Wisconsin since 1982. Current living in Central Wisconsin, "the place where the Polar Vortex takes its winter vacation". I'm in Wausau, along the route of the Milwaukee Road's Valley Line. The Blueboard Central Division of American Flyer Lines resides in my basement.

Ive already chimed in once.

Im from Sunny Northern New York up by the St Lawerence River,

in Cape Vincent, New York. Come on up the waters fine and frozen.

 

Ill include my relatives that are not on this forum.

Brother in Beloit Wisconsin is slowly getting into the

O gauge market. My dad lives in

Chaumont New York and he's into HO scale.

My brother-in-law in in Winston-Salem North Carolina(GO HEELS),

and he's into HO scale.

My father-in-law(passed away last July) lived in Indianapolis Indiana

and he was into O gauge.

Eddie, my dad was from New Rochelle, that's where the Ives trains that I have now were first going around track loops!

 

I'm seventh generation Vermonter on my mom's side.

Hope no one minds a couple of photos.  Northeast Nebraska but spent some time in Ca.   The first photo shows an angle shot of where I was born, and the fields to the east.  The second photo shows the 3/10 mile lane to get to the main road which is also gravel, and the corn field before it gets worked this spring.  The third one shows a big old tree.  Finally a frontal of the same place I now call my cabin.

Down the road from Clayton and Alex Bay, home of the Thousand Islands...

Popi, you're right square in old Hojack Line territory...
