What is the name of the Christmas Layout you have? Mine is The CTC, or the Christmas Tree Central.

We call our show layout "The Tinplate World"

http://www.thortrains.net/shows/index05.html

This year we need a new name for our home holiday pike, seeing as we're using a G scale train instead of 027. Shadow, Peake and Velvet, our black cats, figures out hwo to derail an 027 locomotive last year. They're scared of G scale.

My daughter named our train around the the tree the GHETTO LAYOUT. She doesn't like blowup Christmas Trees.

Thor, you are correct. The cat does not like the G scale but will attack the O27. BTW, our cat is black, too.

E.T. & W. N. C. R.R. was actually Eastern Tennesee and Westen North Carolina Railroad. Locals called it Eat Taters and Wear No Chlothes.
