Eric siegels train video reviews

Eric Siegel was born in Urbana, Illinois in 1976. His parents relocated to Atlanta, GA when Eric was still an infant and he has remained in Georgia ever since. After graduating from Lakeside High School in 1994, Eric Siegel left Atlanta to attend college at The University of Georgia in Athens, GA. He remained in Athens for nearly 7 years, earning a Bachelor's Degree in Anthropology. While attending college Eric pursued a career as a musician, playing the local circuit with the band 40 Acres for the entire length of his stay in Athens. As the internet boom of the 1990's unfolded, Eric taught himself website development skills in an effort to provide a website for his band. Those skills would continue to grow and would eventually become a career. In 2000 Eric Siegel graduated from UGA.

After graduating college, Eric Siegel decided to put his computer skills to use and moved back to Atlanta where he took a technical support job at a large web hosting company. While working for this company, his skill set continued to grow. Eric Siegel would eventually begin to specialize in Unix/Linux systems administration. After 2 years of working as a system administrator with the hosting company, Eric began to work as a systems administrator and web hosting provider for a small number of clients under his own company, Cyberstrux, Inc. Within 2 years Eric had put together a large enough client base to enable him to leave the web hosting company and pursue his work with Cyberstrux, Inc. full time. Eric now handles system administration and programming duties for companies such as SUP ATX, McCartney Multimedia, Find People Search, Aaron Equipment Company, Global Agora and more.

In addition to his work with Cyberstrux, Inc., Eric Siegel founded The Rocks Project and began to write website based tutorials for various Unix/Linux systems administration duties. The flagship website of these tutorials, qmailrocks.org, grew into a community environment enabling thousand

An Introduction

Welcome to Eric's Trains! My name is Eric Siegel and this is my 3-Rail O-Gauge/O-Scale train website. My train adventure started around , when I was about 14 years old and inherited my father's old postwar Lionel set. The set had been in storage for many years in a dark and damp basement, so much of it was is pretty bad shape. However, with a little work, I was able to get the majority of the set back into operating condition. Additionally, I was able to add a large amount of new equipment to the set, resulting in decently sized 16'x8' layout.

By the late 80's and early 90's, Lionel had been reduced to making stuff that really wasn't all that great and the selection of highly detailed scale trains was fairly limited. Although several innovations had been made during Lionel's MPC years, quality and detail was still a little lacking, as was selection. All the new pieces that I bought during this time were a bit flimsy and the plastic pieces broke very easily in the event of a train wreck or even under normal wear and tear. The low level of craftsmanship in the new trains was something of a disappointment, but what could I do? The internet as we know it today was not around yet, so finding Postwar trains was both time consuming and expensive. I was forced to make do with what was readily available. This low point for Lionel was truly a time when a father could say to his son, "They don't make 'em like they used to". But that would soon change.

In I went off to college. My mother sold her house and I had to put the train back into storage in my father's basement. I took a great deal of care in packing it away, as I knew I would one day take it out again. Jump ahead to I graduated from UGA in and was living in a big loft apartment in downtown Atlanta and the arrival of my son prompted me to pull the set out and start the adventure all over again!
