Ferroequinologist

It's a funny word I heard in a TV show the other night. And it fits Dan perfectly. Ferro - "iron", equine - "horse"; ology - "study of." Yup - that's my Dan. One who studies iron horses. Whenever he has a chance, he's watching the BNSF lines just out of town. In October, he dons a pocketwatch and UP cap while he drives the Ernest J. Vala. And last month, (on opening day of college football, no less!) he took the family down the road to a miniature train show. Ah! Life is good.
