Train

My grandfather had many talents, not just the tweezers. He was very ambitious and creative, but so was his family. In addition to being “Uncle Bill” his own uncle had the talent of invention. He build a miniature stream train (picture below) that wasn’t just for show, it actually could run off steam! Unfortunately I don’t know the full story behind this train, but I had the pleasure of having it in my house for the last 4 years. Up close the bell moves and rings and it is almost impossible to pick up the train and track without another person helping you. It is strong and sturdy and has been so nice to have around!
