Some times we flirt with danger and get away with it. So in honor of getting away with it, this FRA Flirting Friday. Does this technically count as a violation? I don't think it does..... but what do you all think?

Big Things Are Happening at S.T.O.R.M. and We Need Your Help, San Antonio!

As the new head of the S.T.O.R.M. division of SARHM, I’m thrilled to share that we’re building out a dedicated space for our O scale model train layout — but we’ve hit a crucial stage and could really use your help!

We’re currently in need of exterior doors and materials for two exterior walls. We have a couple of layout options in mind:

One wall with a double door and the other with a single door, OR

Both walls with single doors, and a 10x10 roll-up garage door for easier access for at least one, or both walls(which would be amazing!).

If you or someone you know has doors, wall materials, or even a roll-up door available — whether it’s for sale or donation — please reach out! Every contribution gets us one step closer to creating an awesome space for our trains and the community.

And hey — we’re always looking for volunteers and passionate train lovers to join our team! If you’ve ever wanted to be part of something creative, fun, and full of history, now’s your chance!

Please like, share, and tag anyone who might be able to help. Let’s build something amazing together, San Antonio!

Today is where we show off some wet and wild action. Isn't she a beauty? Also very thirsty and extremely hungry, but you keep them filled and they'll get you where you want to be.
