Thanks..thats the layout a few friend and I are building....

Hey JimmyG, good to 'meet' you. Actually, my son and I are freelancers, but we include a fair share of Rock Island, which is who ran the 500 miles Interstate now runs. We railfan Interstate quite a bit. I drive by their Council Bluffs yard everyday commuting from Walnut and have been planning on adding them to our collection. We're pretty new to it all still. Only been in the hobby a little more than 2 years. Getting a room painted now to house a "new" HO layout (8'x6'). It's our second attempt since we jumped into the first one a little too fast. I'll link to photos when we make some progress. Take care! IAinterstate(Brett)

Sorry, I just now noticed that you had answered. As you probably know, "Take the A-Train" is the name of Duke Ellington's signature song. The similarity was close so I thought you might have been a jazz musicican or afficinado. Sorry I could not make it to the train show in Omaha.

No, why do you ask, the nickname?
