I am a train dispatcher with a large railroad in Texas and have been with the company for 19 years.  I have had an interest in railroading most of my life, and have been involved with many different facets of railroading.  I was born in St. Paul, Minnesota and have also lived in Fargo, North Dakota until 1997 when I moved to Fort Worth with a transfer of my job.  My other interests are travelling, old cars, boating, gardening, coin collecting and visiting with friends.  My mom, dad and two sisters and most family are still in Minnesota, as is my heart and alot of good friends.   I have included a shot of two of the vehicles I bought on Ebay, my old truck that I purchased for $500 in 11/04, and my Chrysler I purchased in FL, 3/07 and drove home here to TX.
