Can't get video to run. Great to see youngsters enjoying the toys we grew up with, I had my nephews 10 year old daughter over last Sunday and she loves the trains.

Wow! Great to see that young man enjoying the layout and the controls. Very uplifting. Thanks for posting
Nice! I hope I get to visit you in the Fall for our annual meeting up there.

Ray,
I agree it is great to see children and the young at heart enjoy the trains we grew up with. Glad your nephews daughter loves trains. Apologies the video's were not working earlier. I believe they are now working.
Best,
Mike

Ben,
Thanks. Our club is interesting in that we have S, O, G, HO and N permanent layouts (2,700 sq. ft.) and 4 portable layouts, we show at various venues including parades, fairs, nursing homes, libraries, (last Friday an event at SUNY honoring D&H employees), and upcoming a garden show. It would be great if you have the chance to visit.

Your website is amazing, thanks for sharing the link.
Best,
Mike
PS: If you look carefully in the videos you can see the O gauge layout in the background.
In case anyone else on this forum is interested in visiting, I have taken the liberty of Googling the location. It appears to be a really nice club. Here is their location:
22 Hudson Falls Rd. South Glens Falls, NY
(Hint to folks who want to let others know about their clubs and projects: include the address!)
Arthur. With apologies. I provided the website, but not the address. We are very close to Lake George and Saratoga (Horse Race Track), about one hour north of Albany, our NY state capital.
You can bring your trains to run, or operate ours.
Mike
