Thank you and I'm glad you enjoyed it. It was a enjoyable challenge to put all the pieces together, as well as to relax by operating old toy trains. I wish others would follow suit as the recent "My New Postwar Layout" thread demonstrates, a picture or a video is worth a thousand words, good or bad. I enjoy others videos of course more than I do my own. My lousy camera work and dim photographs don't deter me..LOL.

Agree with Roy. Great work on the conversion - and the layout. I spot many nice accessories.

I thought some might enjoy some elderly tinplate, the Hafner conversion using a Marx drive with smoke pulling a Hafner consist.
