Large Scale and Hobby goes Prime Time!!

Torby,
You did have the correct program. I watched the program the first night and thought I had missed the train. I again watched the program the second night and again all I saw of the train was a micro~second of tape with the train in the background. It is too bad that the host couldn't have mentioned the train and maybe something regarding the hobby.
Happy Railroading,
Ron

Quacken,

I designed one in 2 inch scale (1/6) but never got to build it. I'm here 'cause I scaled back to 1/29[:-^]

I visited Mom this weekend and saw the show with the 1 + 6 kids, but I don't remember a train. The circus room was quite a hit. Perhaps this was a different set of sextuplits?

Since my TV only gets one channel, and that's PBS, I don't see much, but then, I don't spend a lot of time with it[;)]

Is there anyone interested in Grand Scale trains on Trains.com? I have a rideable 3" scale steam outline and cars that I run in the yard (I don't have a garden, per se). Hopefully spring will break soon again, here in the midwest.

Show was about a couple with sextuplets. Train was in the room built for the 6 kids. Overhead. Big room. FA/B with caboose.

Few hundred donated from LGB. Good for them. Just a few seconds of trains. But better than nothing.

I think a lot of LS'ers were hoping for more, and were dissapointed. I've been getting a kick out of watching the reactions on the various message boards. Everytying from anything is good, to outright flames. I just hope people will remember what's important to that family.

Wish I had, last night I thought of watching but the wife changed stations while I was up and then I got busy with something else.

What did it show? an overhead system? how big? I'll try to check out tonight.

Did anyone else see the Large Scale Train on Extreme Makeover tonight (8:00 EST)? It was in the Nursery. Checked the site and they say it was an LGB. Checked LGB and they say it will be on Monday March 7 (8:00PM EST) "Extreme Makeover How They Do That". Can't you imagine!! A Large Scale Train in every Home and Children's Room in America!! [:)] Thanks ABC and Extreme Makeover
