When it comes to hobbies and crafts, if we don't already have it, we will order it for you.
One of our long-range goals is to establish a museum for the Texas Midland Railway, also known as
The Texas Midland Railway was the reclusive venture of the 19th Century multi-millionairess, Hettie Green, and she set it up as a business to occupy her son with a visible means of support. Col. Ed Green then completed building the railroad from its incomplete terminus near Roberts to Paris, where it connected with the FRISCO, thereby making it a straight route from Saint Louis, Missouri to Galveston, Texas, where people wanted go from the bitter cold in the American midwest and northeast.
The Right of Way for the Midland ran along the west side of Gerry's property near Cash, Texas,
just south of Greenville.
As a railroad, they catered to people who wanted careful, safe, and secure transport for their freight, and courteous passenger trains to places of interest, such as the highly sought beaches and luxurious hotels in Galveston, on the Gulf of Mexico.
The Green Line brought people of all sorts from the cold parts of the midwest to Saint Louis, where they boarded The Green Line and rode in sumptuous comfort to Paris on Saint Louis and San Francisco rails (FRISCO), then over the Midland rails to Garret where they joined the Texas Central to Houston and on to Galveston.
As the people in Greenville prospered, their gents often took their ladies to Dallas for shopping and dining. For these outings they paid ca$$$h, but in our modern times, we also accept

We don't have everything we envision for being your Help Center, yet, but people needing help is how most of the modern problems are solved. The only request is to honor our commitment to being here from 9:30 in the morning until after 5:00 in the late afternoon. We are busy singing in the choir on Sunday and recovering with a bit of a nap and work around the farm on Monday.

Now, browsing back to hobbies where you have lots of fun, . . . other than drinking coffee; we have some of the best hobby products and craft materials for trains that roll on rails, planes that
fly in the air , cars and trucks that speed around race tracks, dash down your
HO-scale slot tracks, or float on water,
. . . also maybe ski over the water's surface, under your control via simple VHF or sophisticated UHF radio systems.
So, if trains that roll on rails don't interest you, how about some Radio Controlled airplanes that fly or, scale sized cars, . . . or trucks?
Our hobby manufacturers have worked very hard to build many cars and trucks for race tracks, or zoom around slot--tracks, powered by gas engines or electric motors. Radio Control has never been better, and offer graduated degrees of sophistication to challenge the eager race driver.
Just imagine yourself in control of a scale-model race car, and dashing along at very high scale-speeds. Choose an Indy car, souped-up truck, or really hot stock car.
. . . in the air, here is a model of a refurbished Stearman with a closed cabin and beauitiful paint job.

RTF or ARF ??? What's in it for the modeler?
A ready-to-fly (RTF) model includes all accessories you will need to fly the plane. Almost no building skills are required.
This is how a Super Cub looks before it is assembled.
What you receive will be complete with the motor, radio, and battery already installed. In fact even the decals will be attached, so there is really a minimum of assembly. The wing will have to be attaced with rubber bands or a simple screw. Proven designs will fly very well and may even continue to be a favorite model.
The performance of RTF models has changed radically in the last few years and most can be expected to fly very well. Local hobby dealers will offer repair parts for the best models.
Models called almost-ready-to- fly (ARF airplanes). The basic difference between the ARF and RTF is the amount of assembly required by the pilot.
The ARF will require the final installation of radio, motor and some accessories. It will also be necessary to assemble a few main components but there will not be any need to paint or cut and fit components. Instruction manuals for ARF models will carefully outline all of the steps required to complete the model. One significant difference of an ARF and RTF will be the radio. The ARF will expect you to provide the radio control system. ARF models can be expected to have repair parts available at the local hobby shops.
Talk with Gerry to be sure you understand what a complete flying system needs, and then enjoy flying to the wild blue yonder.
Radio Control
Radio Control works with model airplanes, cars and trucks, and boats. Model roading hasn't adopted radio control, but they have Digital Command and Control, also known as DCC.
Spektrum has certainly brought a number of innovative features to RC'ers over the years. The DX3C may be a perfect entry-level radio, mixing in
a 20-model memory, computerized operation, exponential rates, and provides features that far surpass its competition.
Featuring a sharp and easy-to-read LCD display, scrolling selector operation, 20-model memory and integrated SD Card Slot just to name a few, the DX3C could be a contender for radio of the year- it's that good.
