Wow! Lots of good stuff in here.... I will be reading this one for a long time!

Then, just for fun, I will go back and re-read it!

I agree Kent, what a great collection of photos and articles. I expect to be reading this on the train for a long time...

Got mine too Santa Fe. I especially liked the article on the Lionel showroom display layouts. Reminds me of childhood trips to the department store at Christmastime when I was but a wee lad. The article shows you don't have to have a super-detailed Hi-Rail set up to have an enjoyable layout. Quite a bit of realism can be obtained with simple, easy-to-use scenery making materials like the ones used on most of those display layouts. Many of us set our goals for scenery on a layout so high that we never quite get around to actually building anything. I think the article is great in that many will get inspired to the point of diving in and building an operating layout.
