Hey Everyone,

My name is Franklin. I am a 15 year old Sophomore in High School in Chicago. I have been a fan a trains (particularly Steam Locomotives) since the age of 2 when I started watching Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends. This grew into me becoming an avid railfan. After Kindergarden Graduation my parents took me to Boone, Iowa for a Day out with THomas Event where I rode in THomas' Cab and rode behind their Chinese steam locomotive. I went on to visit many tourist railways over the next several years. During this time I also got into HO Scale modelling.

After recieving a new camera for Christmas, I began to photogragh all of the trains I encountered. So far the subway that I ride to school everyday and the Metra Line that runs paralel to it.

I plan to expand my collection, since I spend most of my time in big railroad towns: Chicago, Illinois, Peoria, Illinois, and New Buffalo, Michigan.
