Overview	Before the ride-along train was built, Jack, a retired carpenter, began with miniature train sets. Twenty years ago Jack began to build a miniature train garden with 100 feet of railroad track around a gazebo in his backyard. He now has nearly a quarter of a mile of railroad tracks and 12 miniature trains that he and his son Phillip, 53, maintain.
