We have a separate more scale- like layout in a 12 x 16 foot shed. But a year and a half ago, my wife suggested I build a small layout to have in our front room. So I decided to build a small 4 x 4 foot layout in post war style and run my first train set (a 1956 Switcher set I received for Xmas that year). That same year, my little brother received a small set with the Lionel 520 electric locomotive. I had bought a 520 engine and the same type cars that my brother had received so I could recreate his set, and I planned to run these sets on this 1956 style layout. I used the same 027 manual switches I had received the next Xmas and 027 track. It was fun building it, and it’s fun running these old trains.
