The Boy Who Loved Toy Trains

IVAN S. STONE has been a toy train enthusiast since the age of 3 playing with Thomas and Brio wooden trains. But it really came into play when at the age of 5, his father brought him to a family friend's home. Up in the attic was an electric train layout like no young boy had ever seen before. There was no greater gathering of toys and gadgets and colors and shapes and wheels and sounds and lights and miniature people anywhere, and all going at the same time! With the trains being the main focus, young Ivan was smitten. Then there was the train layout at Sears and Roebuck during the Christmas season.......Now, an advertising executive and salesman, Ivan spends a lot of time at train gatherings and conventions to fulfill his hobby. Thus, begins our story and so far there is no end in sight.You may contact him through sstone3005@gmail.com.
