Every Christmas for the past 20 years, "Pop" would setup a Christmas Train in his front yard. Every year, the setting would seem to get a bit larger and more elaborate. Toy soldiers, Santas, buildings, lighted trees would all decorate the train's setting. Depending on the weather, on Christmas Eve, "Pop" would dress up in his Santa suit (he did enjoy Christmas), and pass out candy to children who would stop by. Since his death, the tradition of the Christmas Train has been carried on by his friend, Dr. Ned Turnbull.
