Reply to "Vintage Department Store Toy Train Memories"

Photos of the Lionel and American Flyer layouts at Marshall Field's in Chicago are either non-existent or haven't been put up on the internet yet. Apparently the same goes for the other department store trains in Chicago's "Loop" downtown area.  My Mom used to indulge me with a holiday season tour of all the toy departments and Field's train department was the best - not just at Christmas but year 'round. I remember Carson Pirie Scott, Wieboldt's, and Mandel Bros. also had trains but we're going back to the Eisenhower era here and I don't remember much about their set-ups.
