Paul, the trains look great on your layout! The L&N passenger train is really great looking! The Niagara of course looks great! The Weaver TOFC collection has to be one of the largest. How many cars have you pulled at one time?
Joe, it is easy to get distracted when trains can be run.
Carl, That's a good repair and replace job on the bridges and piers.
Ed, Your helpers are doing a great job! They will feel a part of the layout and learn skills as they go along.
Matt, Nice trains running!!
Brian, All good photographs.
I got a chance to go through all the buildings and come up with a theme. We haven't used a lot of these cheaper Dickens Village buildings for 3 or 4 years, so we will have Dickens Village this year. We are still deciding whether to move any buildings before putting in lights, then people, trees, and other items. Here is what we have right now.
To follow up on my repair on the 15-year old Hyundai. They still have it, but there were no surprises after they got the hood off. Someone said the used replacement hood needs a racing stripe, which I said reminded me of Herbie. Well look what I saw in the music store parking lot today.
With that layout, the Polar Express bridge, the snow layout, what a TOTALLY FANTASTIC CHRISTMAS LAYOUT!!!! Plus an added bonus with the Hogwarts Express. And funny thing, we just saw Fantastic Beasts 2 yesterday evening in the theaters, but no Hogwarts Express in that movie. But Hogwarts Castle was.
And with the car, as in Rudolph, Herbie - "I'm in dependent, I want to be a dentist". Oh wait, this is Herbie the Volkswagen beetle, LOL.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!!! Gobble, Gobble, Gobble.
