With his father being an avid historian, photographer and accomplished modeler, Chris was exposed to many aspects of the hobby. With over twenty-five years working as a full-time railroader and a love for model railroading \u201cHome Shops\u201d was born. Freelance railroading in HO scale is big a part of the hobby and now you can own equipment from some of the finest layouts around.
