Dear Friend:

Welcome to Model Trains Online,

My name is Jeremy Vanessa. I have been playing with model train sets since I was 7 years old when I got my first Lionel "O" set for Christmas. That was nearly 30 years ago and I still love model trains. Over the years I have gathered a lot of information and knowledge about model railroads and model trains. The great thing about this hobbies is that the whole family can get involved, especially when you start building large scale landscapes. This is one of the most rewarding hobbies I have ever had, that is probably why I have stuck to it for so long. I have a goal.
