Doug was the owner of Dougs Trains. A delightful hobby shop dedicated to model trains solely.
Doug was also instrumental in my evolution into a custom model builder. He channeled a pile of projects to me in the early days of my career and I will be forever grateful for his support. Mind you, I can't look at another Intermountain grain hopper again. Must have built over 100 of those when they first came out.
I'm going to miss Doug.

I'll miss Doug too. He could be a little acerbic but was always willing to order stuff in for me. Quite the surprise. I knew that he'd been not feeling well for a while.

I could never get over just how much (great) stuff was (neatly) packed into such a small space. More detail parts than just about any other place! Doug was always very helpful and his advice and suggestions made the whole model railway experience that much more enjoyable. I miss popping in there over lunch time.
