[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by troybetts</i> <br /><br />My Dad recently phoned the garden railways shop to ask if they had the latest LGB tramcar with sound.They did and set it to one side for him.When he arrived and it was unpacked it was decorated in Christmas logos.After the initial shock,for both of them,they decided to put it on the test rollers to see what the sound was like.After it had spouted "Yo Ho Ho" a couple of times and launched into a christmas carol they managed to control their hysterics long enough to repack it.They both agreed that there is no market in England for such a thing. <br />Troy <br />[/quote] <br /> <br /> <br />Troy, <br /> <br />I guess the Isles aren't ready for the "in-your-face-blatant-commericalism-of-christimas." I too agree, there is no market in England for such a thing.[:p] <br /> <br />In any case, I think a simple decoration of layout building and some minor redressing of your existing equipment is a honorable enough tribute. The redress can come from all those little wreaths and christmas trinkets that appear as early as October, but hearld the start of what my religious preference calls "Advent." <br /> <br />So many people have little christmas "villages," mostly Victorian in style, that there is plenty of little stuff out there. <br /> <br />Same for election seasons and Easter! <br />
