 Sad.

That's too young for anybody to check out. I met him once at a National Model Railroading Convention, being held in Long Beach Ca., he loved trains and his layout was featured in Model Railroader magazine.

R.I.P. little guy.

not a fan of the show but 42 is way too young.  He appeared he had a tough and angry life.  I wonder if that has any long lasting effect....

Mark you're into trains ??  I love my lionels... and  MTH stuff.

no train pics by the subaru.....

Not to push the topic in the wrong direction.........but, yes I love trains. I model the Rio Grande in HO scale circa 1970-'76, and for awhile served as an associate author for Mainline Modeler magazine, I've wriiten and published at least a dozen modeling articles too....... :)

Some trains.


And the Subaru with a diorame on the roof at a photo shoot..........



And too not stray too far, Gary Colman was quite nice when I met him and he was an avid model railroader.

Mark - i am a more traditional kind of guy  - hair challenged (lost that battle)  jeans instead of skirts and o gauge for me.  My trains however are mostly sitting on shelves as i have lost my train room to a play room for my 11 year old son...
how about 2 subarus....tribeca and new legagcy for my wife.  How boring..... have a jeep for some fun....

On topic now. Child stars always seem to have a tough time after their cuteness wears off. That must have been a  very hard lesson for Gary when he really learned what the world was about. Man he had on hell of a catch phrase ! "what u talk'n 'bout Willis" RIP Gary
