I was born in 1957, my first layout was Loinel, that was 1961. In 63' I got my first HO set and my parents would buy MRs' for me every other month, I would drag them every were with me. I still have alot of these, looking back, it seems HO started in on the scene in the late 40's. But really took off in the 50's. The biggest builder was Mantua, Globe, and Loinel started to make the HO entry ( their stuff was made by Athearn. Athearn took over Globe's line of products, oh I forgot Varney. <br /> Its fun to look back when HO started, O scale was KING, every one laughed at those little trains. Which in the late 60's when HO had become King we laughed at the new tiny little N scale trains. In there somewhere was TT I have been in this hobby for 40+ and have never seen a piece of TT. It was in between HO and N. <br /> This is what I recall, add to as you see it. <br /> Dave
