Afternoon guys,
I spent the morning working on my Engine Service area again today. After looking at it I just thought it didn't look right with concrete on the inside and nothing on the outside. So I built some concrete slabs for outside, 2 with stairs and railings. The center one doesn't have anything as no one should b e out there without a train to climb on. Here are a couple photos! Enjoy!

Noice!

Mitch, looks like your in the spirt of the season! I didn't even know Lionel made that!

The train is entirely home-rolled (except the loco, which is stock but has a nice holiday stripe on it).

Lionel makes lovely trains, but I don't have $800 to spare to buy specialty holiday cars... All those were about $5 a pop train show specials, decorated for another couple bucks apiece with stickers and decorations from Hobby Lobby.
