Tom--that Rocket just looks tremendous, thank you.

One of my wife's older clients knows about our hobby and she gave us these documents last week. I hope you can see the prices on the menu, she had written on the menu-- June of 1962.

Ok, this time I promise, no more 2003 after today! But I figured if I said they were from 2005, no one would know anyways, right? [:D]







And one last look at this wonderful track plan [:D]

Nice pictures everyone ! I know I sure enjoyed them all. If I'm not mistaken, I believe Cleveland is also known for its many bridges. Sure like Snoopy,too ! Thanks, John

Last friday I learned a very valuable lesson. [:I]
When there are only two operators for the club layout, there are quite a few visitors, and you have to make a head call, "Stop your trains".[xx(]
If you don't this could be the result.

I would guess it is a little small , but the Disneyland Train looks a little smaller than 1:29 commonly found with G.
