Will this publication be a compilation of previously published material or will it be new material?
Keith
Good morning Keith,
I am delighted to answer your question. "Lionel's Showroom Layouts" will consist of brand-new material! I am writing what amounts to a book on the showroom and its great layouts. Never-before-seen photos of these layouts, plus brand-new written accounts. You'll learn about the earliest layouts there (Standard gauge and O gauge), as well as the T-Rail O gauge layout, the Lionel Railroad Panorama built after World War II, the famous 1949 layout, and the Super O extravaganza that was there until the showroom closed. Anyone interested in toy trains and the history of our hobby will find this special publication valuable and enjoyable and informative. Thanks, Roger Carp, Senior Editor
Roger - Thanks a heap for your reply to Keith! I had just about convinced myself that the book would be a typical Kalmbach re-hash compilation of CTT articles. You just turned it into a "must have."

Same here. Now I plan on ordering this book.
