Reply to "The "Encourage Others Challenge": Post a picture of your layout...how many will post???"

Attached are some photos of my Lionel D-165 1956 dealer display reproduction.  The 665, part of the 2257WS outfit, is my first train, given to me by my dad in December, 1956 when I was just 3 months old!  He started me early.  The layout was built using original Lionel construction methods where possible.  Unfortunately, the track plan is incorrect for the production layouts (it is correct for the prototype shown in the 1956 Dealer Display catalog) since I didn't have access to the instruction sheets when I built the layout.  Lionel made significant changes to the track plan when they made the production layouts.  The special dealer display billboards are reproductions I created in PowerPoint.
