In the beginning...

 This is the first post on my new blog, Mr. Doggard's Magic Diesel Blog. I'm still getting the hang of this stuff, so bear with me for a bit.

Here you will find a collection of information on some models of diesel electric locomotive which I have collected over the last several years. While my specific interest is General Electric locomotives, I also have collected data on EMD, Baldwin, Lima, ALCO, and others, and intend to post varied and interesting content on this blog depending on what I have at my disposal.

I can also, occasionally, post off topic discussion (which will be tagged as such) relating to my other interests or various personal topics. As well as an archivist and modeler, I am a hobby writer and a big fan of video games.

Thanks for checking out my blog.
