Conrad "Doc" Hill

Doc Hill did love trains. His basement in Westbrook was filled with them, in scales from HO to O to G. Here's Doc during a visit a few MGRS members made to see his trains a couple of years ago. His son's magnificent model of the Portland station is behind him. I don't remember anyone who had a greater love of trains. Heaven knows where, but let's hope Doc is happily riding one right now.
