Christmas Layout for Kids
Posted by lionel2 on Tuesday, December 7, 2010 6:05 PM

My Christmas train layout platform is 15 x 8 and I am debating whether to setup the Postwar O gauge or the Standard Gauge trains.  What do you think kids will enjoy most?? Yes, standard gauge is bigger, but no smoke.  I do have 2 whistling tenders for standard and many for O gauge.  Kids love smoke though.  But, I do not want to setup all my accessories like I have in years past.  All 22 of them is getting too much for me.  Maybe just do track, switches, bumpers and engines and freight cars.  Let me know which you think I should setup this year for the kids?  Thanks.

Run em' all.  If you take up the space with rails, then you won't even have room for 22 accessories.  You can alternate the accessories and keep a few perrennial favorites.
