Nick and his trains

Those of you who know Nick well know that he loves trains. In fact on one of our first dates he took me to a train store with him.

Last Saturday he went to our local train store with Dave and Preston and came home with this.

It's a new HO scale steam engine. I guess it's pretty cool but when he called me from the store to tell me about it I thought it would make real steam so I was not as enthusiastic as he would have liked when he brought it home.

But it certainly didn't spoil his fun. He said that this particular engine is worth close to $200.00 but we only paid $35.00!
