I never met the man, but his writing had a big influence on my modeling. His layout plans always had an eye to compact spaces. Most famous for the Gum Stump & Snowshoe, the plan wasn't just the track, but a compelling operation that could take a good deal of time to figure out. My condolences to his family.
