Reply to "Running your trains through . . . (?)"

Years ago, in the Montgomery County, MD/Suburban Washington DC train show circuit, there was a woman who had a Z gauge layout.

Half was a European country scene - I think in Winter with snow, skiers, etc. the other half was a dollhouse. A mountain separated the two. With the flip of a switch, the train would go into the tunnel and enter the dollhouse, run around the Christmas tree (the wall was off the side of the house to allow people to view) in the living room of the house. Another flip of the switch sent the train back "outside".

It was extremely well done and always drew a crowd. I have not seen this woman and the layout in at least 10 years. A local HO friend of mine, I believe, kept in touch with her. If I recall correctly, she moved out West. I will have to ask him what became of her and the layout next time I see him. Wish I had a photo of this set up, it was quite a hoot!
