## Resource

Achievable and attainable. Those are the words that come to mind while describing the MKT Central Texas Subdvision of our guest, David Heyde. David tells us how the MKT has stuck since childhood and how a busy adulthood has led him to build, as he describes, a "learning layout" that fits the current season of his life and permits him to balance model railroading with his personal life and professional career.
