Charlie Bailey is passionate about toy trains. He collects Standard gauge (modern reissues from Lionel and MTH) and takes pride in the wonderfully detailed and expertly wired O gauge railroad filling much of the lower portion of the home he shares with his wife, Jane.
We’re thrilled to be able to tour Charlie Bailey’s 42 x 49-foot three-rail empire and see the great work he has done. At the same time, we can pay tribute to the folks who have helped him, starting with Jane and moving forward to such good friends and talented artists and builders as Tom McKenzie, Jeff Baumgartner, Tom Carey, and Roger Farkash.
