HOWDY from tennesse
« on: September 30, 2011, 05:46:05 PM »
Howdy, Joe here. Loved the trains when I lived in PA near Scranton(Steamtown-DL&W), Got to see the Big Boy run to the Poconos. I found this site while searching for info on old Lackawanna wrenches I have and other old wrenchs, even got a pair of ice hooks from the old ice houses in Gouldsboro- old home town. Now live in Sevierville Tn Jack of all trades master of none ( maybe goofing off counts). Looking forward to helping if I can- limited time on computer

Welcome : )


>Scranton(Steamtown-DL&W),

Rode on Steamtown's 'one track ride' when it was in Vermont, was sad when it went under, but at least they saved the rolling stock....

Belated welcome from Texas, Joe! I've been working extra nights this week due to one of the dispatchers being out sick.
