The Christmas Train is from SAM"s Club. It is a real nice set and sells for less than $150. Don't use Bachman Track outside. Use LGB or Aristocraft track. The transformers are stored in Rubbermaid containers.

Make sure you put Major Bolton, US Army on your email Christmas Card list. If everyone could send him and email with a photo of a model train, toy train or a real train, I know he would appreciate it. His email address is: [e-mail]

Rumor has it a certain southern gentleman with pull on town council became so paranoid from the ribbing by his northern friends that he was able to scam money from city coffers to purchase this ex CN snowplow. At last report he's been layed up with a nasty cold...obviously the result of spending endless chilly NC nights painting it black with a nice white horsie on the side. Get well soon, Chief!

These pics are from last sundays Great Train Extravaganza show in Albany NY, hosted by my club UTA. Nice turnout this year and our newly purhased lionel cab forward was a hit, except it was pulling NYC passenger cars though[;)][:D][:)].


This is myself operating the classic milkcar for a youngster

Good to see so many pics today from regulars and newbies alike.

Buck, Do yo have a rotary plow for the front of the train, maybe a NS, looks like you may need it.

Here's the newest member of the family. A Railking Cab Forward. It runs really nice, but the Proto 1 sound sounds a little strange. I plan on converting it to TMCC and Railsounds soon.






Hope you enjoy....Tim

Since buseiness is booming on the Salt River Canyon railroad, I'm building a small city to get all the people a house.

Photo is taken without flashlight, it's a bit yellowish..

The city street of Kenn-city in raw shape.

This was first a small hill, now it's becoming a city.

On the other side, the hill disappeared as well.

A small forrest has been made in ordr to give the citisins of kenn-city a way of relaxing. The small shovel is leveling the ground to make place for some cattle and a small station.

The small shovel at work. (no john deere..)

And the new MTH steamer, which steams through the forrest...

... back to the city to deliver the passengers back home after a sunday's outing in nature.

GIZ,
GREAT PHOTOs.
BUCKEYE,
That is an outstanding IDEAr about sending MAJ. JOE a pic of a toy train.
We got to either make a tread and send him the whole thing if we can do that it would be great.
Whats the best way to get him the pics? Through here or on our own?

MartyE, why does your website not work anymore?

[MartyE]

I'm at the point where I have nothing new to add. I think I may keep the domain name but for now It will be gone except for the message that is there. I may re introduce it as a picture only minus all the other stuff.

starting work on a scene in a dead corner. A street will run perpindicular to the curve.

That's nice, Marty, It's not often that women are interested in toytrains that much that they want to get a layout of their own.

Jerry,
Get those videos up on the net ASAP!

I built my tunnel based on yours. Only difference being mine has 2 homemade portals on it, made from foam board.


Daan,
Great forest! What did you use for the trees?


Frank53,
Your layout is taking shape quickly. I enjoyed seeing your Scout on it on another forum (MTJ). I have one from 1952 - a 2034. It's loud, but runs nice for an old cheapie. I deleted the majority of my posts over there because they went unanswered. That's why I only have 3.

Love the Christmas Pictures!

Hey guys; look what I got. The buy of the century!!!

A 4-4-0 ALL METAL from Rite-Aid Drug Store in Crystal City, Va.

50% off

O scale

$7 vice $14

If Rite Aid can sell these metal wonders so cheaply, why can't toy trains be less expensive???????????

I was going to use this as one of those rotating gag gift things but I might end up losing it in that stupid game so I'm hanging on to it.

It's going outside in the garden on the end of an abandoned spur

Hey, Buckeye,

I'll have to post some of my outside toy train stuff next week. I've got a stretch of track laid and there was icicles hanging down from the warehouse.
