So true, so true... according to my Mrs. too.
I know Perry who posts in Sunday Photo Fun often has been in the magazine, his is a gorgeous detailed layout and scenery . I believe Roger B was also in CTT and Roy McClellan was in the article about the display layouts he has worked on. I am sure there are others too. I personally think Frank53's layout ought to be in there. Check out it out at http://www.lionellines.net

Frank53's layout will be eventually. But he has a way to go before his layout is finished.

Our own 'cheapclassics' Mike Conley has also had more than a few articles.

Just made the NEWS section in the July 2007 issue CTT .... "Old King Coal goes on the road".

OKC - Wow, David, that's some portable display! The CTT pics don't do it justice though. Could you kindly post some pics (maybe on Sunday photo fun...)
Oh, and BTW--->
Hey fifedog ... Thanks for your post. Sorry for the delay in getting back, as I have been running freight at 2 Canada Day celebration events today, and just got home. I'll try to post some pics tomorrow, (after I figure out the black magic in photo posting).
Regards ... in trains,
Happy Canada Day! (While there's still a little of it left.)
We were very lucky on Dominion Day (that's what they called it then) in 1959. While driving the Alaska Highway, we hit a rock and damaged our suspension. The only mechanic in the next little town was Quebecois and only too happy to work on the holiday to make a political point!

Oh i really have to see this.........lol
One day i will be in the magizine.......

We will give it a whirl with some pics ... I'm a "greenhorn" at photo posting. Hope this works.
Glad you enjoyed the pics ... Best wishes to all CTT forumites in "trains & trolleys" ... Have a great 4th of July holiday !
What an incredible layout, David! Enjoy seeing photos of it. Thanks for posting.

Now the cat is out of the bag. I just try to visit the forum guys and sneak GRITS into their towns.
