Doug Johnson

Region.
Doug is a member of an On30 modular group and is building an HOn3 railroad at home, patterned after the former Alice Arm Railway in north-western B. C. He is 8 years into a 4 year project on it.
Doug is a CPA with a public income tax practice and is co-owner of a five-pin bowling centre in Regina. His other activities include golfing, art collecting and wine appreciation.
John has been interested in trains since at least the age of 4, after watching the action in the CPR yard in Cranbrook, BC. He’s fairly sure that he had to be forcibly removed under loud protest. He became aware of serious scale model railroading when the NMRA National Convention was held in Winnipeg in 1983, and began with an N scale train set shortly after. His current model railroad is a freelanced short line, in N scale, set in the mountains of southern British Columbia.
