The Amtracks are exceptonally well made and look very accurate.

I got to see Hermans work first hand at Danville. These 2 vehicles are just amazing. Truly a first rate job.

Man, every time I see videos from Danville, I want to go back tomorrow. I had such a great time there I could not believe it. A great bunch of guys and an awesome battle field. You can see that it has taken years to build. The H.E.A.T. guys are lucky to be able to call it their home field. I'll be back in April, Maybe Mare too.
