My name is Mike, and I'm a professional engineer/amateur historian living in Kensington, Maryland. I have a pretty wide variety of interests -- many of which involve travel in one form or another -- but here on Wikipedia I mostly devote my energy to articles about the history and geography of the railroads and engineering. Like other users, I enjoy working on significant but little-known topics ... subjects not likely to receive much attention on Wikipedia otherwise.
