I’m going to preface this by saying I love trains and I love miniature models of anything. Meeting Eugene in his garage was a dream. He has converted the whole space into both a workshop and a miniature version of Waterford train station as it appeared in the 80s.
The whole thing is a wonder to behold. He has handmade so many little models, including the train carriages and engines, the buildings, the construction cranes, a graveyard, the tiny people and even a whole load of seagulls. If you look close enough, there’s even a tiny 80s version of himself and his son Trevor.
Eugene can’t comprehend why I’ve chosen to come and chat with him. He doesn't often show his trains to people outside of the community. I think he may be underestimating the amazing job he’s done on them.
