Update, Pictures:

[DCmontana]

We finally have some pictures of the train at school. You will have to go to:
http://www.broadus.net/train.htlm and you will see them. Please remember that the layout is far from finished, but I had to get something up and running. We have progressed along way with scenery, details, and wiring since these pictures were taken. The kids viewing are in kindergarten and they still have the true love of learning and are awed when they see something unusual that they like. I am sorry that the pictures are dark, but they were taken under dim light so the kids could see the lights on the train board. There is a good shot of ole 2056 in Milwaukee livery, Ready to Roll in Miami, FL did the custom paint job. That engine came in my original set, Christmas 1952. Lionel's steam engines that year did not have magna-traction. We need to bring these kids into the hobby and this is the age to get them! You will have to go to www.broadus.net and add: train.html to get to the pictures.




Thanks, ***

Nice job. I bet you have added a few new model railroaders to this hobby. Now only if I could assemble a small door layout in my old grade school for the pre- schoolers, and the kindergarterners. That would go over well with the shool I think. Thank you for the idea. Maybe some G scale..............
