About Roger

Born in 1946 Roger became interested in Railroading at an early age, and he was old enough to see the phasing out of steam and the advent of new motive power such as the diesel. He would often visit the local Yard and Roundhouse in Phoenix Arizona so he could "hitch rides" with the engineers. He is a graduate of "The Railway Educational Bureau" in Omaha. He also began drawing and painting trains and won a scholastic art award in the second grade. Some of his other accomplishments include being a published Author, Musician, Pilot, and advocate for the Native American people.

Fans of Espee Welcome to this new site! Expect to see much more.
