QUOTE: Originally posted by dwiemer BTW, When I had started up the Polar Express and fired off the whistle a few times at the Dillard's Department Store, it really drew attention and inquires to purchase. This was just a static display with no other sets available. I think if Dillard's and other major stores had some active displays, the Hobby would have a resurgence not seen since the late 40's. After I did what I did at Dillard's and the customers asked about the trains, the store got some in and quickly sold out. Perhaps, Classic Toy Trains could put a free copy card in the sets that come out next year? That would certainly grow the business and grow the hobby from a Christmas tree set, to a year round adventure for many. Dennis
