I meet Donald by his wife because she was my barber. He was looking for someone in the area that was interested in model trains like he was. I have just gotten back into the hobby after my high school years in Bullard and I was looking for a place to run my trains. I was also at the same time creating a regional model railroad to run on a layout. The "Teague, Mexia, Rock Island & Gulf Railroad" was one of my projects.
Tracy Reagan (Donald's brother) join us at the time we started our groundbreaking work. Tracy has been interested in railroading since he was a kid in Jacksonville. The layout wasn't much, but it got us off the ground.
