More Kids Introduced to Model Railroading

[cmrj]

When I had the lay out set up on the living floor we would have our friend's over for pizza and tell them to bring the kid's. To see there eye's light up watching that 2020 fright set fly around the living room ,was worth all the time spent..best part is watch the parent's when I let the kid's take the lever of the ZW and run the train. I would even show them how to use the operating car's and acc's. They never wanted to leave, most are in collage now and they still ask about the train's.Now my 4 yr. old is running the2020 and will have his friend's over too.[:D] MIKE

Link is to an article in the Rochester, NY Democrat & Chronicle newspaper about a local TTCS meet over the weekend. I had to miss it (getting ready for surgery this week), but it still makes my heart glad that so many kids had a chance to get up close and personal with toy trains.

Good stuff!!
