Thomas for Halloween
Posted by Ray Dunakin on Tuesday, November 3, 2009 1:22 AM
This little neighbor boy is a big fan of Thomas the Tank Engine, and that's what he wanted to be for Halloween. So his dad made him this nifty costume: . BTW, I always fix up our front patio into kind of a "haunted house", which is always very popular with the local kids. This year I made myself a jack o'lantern mask: . It was very effective but also rather hot and uncomfortable. But at least the kids enjoyed it.

Who had more fun, you or the kids? Or is a case of fun by all?

 Very cool!  Love the Thomas and the Jack-O-Lantern is done really well.

We do-up the garage in a "Haunted House" look and setup a 3rail "O" layout, don't want little ones going up & down the steps to the front door. It takes two to three weeks to put together, lots of work but lots more fun. People will come back after trick-r-treating and just want to watch the trains and see what's different from previous years. Gotta try to pass on the "Train Addiction" to the younger generations.

Tried a nite shot, but as is evident my camera skills ain't very good.
