The little depot in the photo is Silvernails, New York - a "family heirloom" since an ancestor named Egbert Silvernail fought and won against the Central New England Railroad, demanding a post office be included with their proposed station and rail line across his fields north of Pine Plains. As for me, I have been in the railroadiana world for about 30 years.

We belong to Key, Lock & Lantern, The Railroad Collectors Association Inc. (RCAI), the Rutland Railroad Historical Society and the New York Central Historical Society. Under my business name Time's Treasures LLC, I have been a shop owner selling on Ruby Lane since 2000, and recently opened a store on Etsy. I also rent space in a terrific antique group shop in Eagle Bridge, New York. The Railroadiana world has given us wonderful experiences making new friends and learning about transportation history in the USA.
