The annual running of the Christmas Train!I used to have a nice set of card stock houses that went under the tree.  They apparently didn't make the move south because I haven't come across them.

NO, he said Lashup and somehow did not draw the ire of our former publisher.

Best looking graffiti car, ever!  Even the homies are admiring it.

Eddie, I love the LEGO village.  You should post some of the buildings over on the ""O" Gauge Trains and LEGO" post inthe scenery forum.

Here is my Christmas Wall of Operating Trains. All of the track shelves are powered.

Stuff still in storage for over four years now while we're living in this temporary apartment looking for a house. Anyhow figured it was time to set up a train around the tree. Pulled out this fun set.

I'm a little slow Patrick.........but you didn't have to tell me that the shelf tracks were powered

Is there any Christmas engines or rolling stock that you don't  have ? 

Really nice display sir.    Merry Christmas.🎅🤶

Well Joe........the houses may not be there but it sure is very colorful under the tree.

Thank You...I have more that either I don't have room or they are on my train layout. Just got a late start this holiday. I will try to do better next Christmas....Merry Christmas to All

Here’s mine

Still working on the new O gauge setup, but this LGB train has been doing Christmas duty in our house faithfully for many years

Final result with all the lights on ... built over a stairwell in the dinning room.

Having 3 cats, we can't put any fragile Christmas buildings by the train around our tree.  We put down some white shag rugs as our "snow."  I have an MTH station and Lionel house with Christmas lights which the cats haven't bothered.  You can see part of a cat tree at the left side of the video.

I rotate between several different Christmas trains from year to year.  This year the train is the MTH Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer train with a couple of different cars added.
