Hello, and welcome to my User Page! My interests for Wikipedia are primarily in the areas of rail transportation and railroad history (see list below), but I also have an avid interest in computer science and mathematics.
My interests:
- U.S. Railroad History
- Mostly eastern coal-hauling lines (C&O, N&W, VGN) and logging.
- Early Virginia railroads
- Some Western Montana Railroads
- Virginia unincorporated communities
- Black powder and "Old West" firearms, especially Colt firearms
