Howard,
Fantastic website.  I particularly loved the video of the 1904 Vanderbilt Cup Race and the video of your beautiful Alco starting up.
I look forward to visiting this site again & again.  By the way, many thanks for visiting the VCR meeting last Wednesday night.  You were a hit.

Roger:

Thanks for the feedback! We raised over $200 for Child Abuse Prevention Services and had a lot of fun!

Enjoy,

Howard
