    I'll never forget when my father surprised me with an 027 layout in our basement. As a little kid I could my father working down there after he came home from work every night, he worked in the post office at the window, my mother could hardly keep me from sneaking downstairs to see what was going on. My father would lock the cellar door after he came upstairs, one day when it was finished I was then able to go and see, he had gotten a 4×8 sheet of plywood and set up a layout with my Lionel trains, it was unbelievable and he enjoyed it as much as I did because before then in had to wait until Christmas with the traditional l train around Christmas tree, it's an old house and the cellar isn't that big but after that I slowly began fixing it up and it became my playroom especially in summer, we didn't have air conditioning upstairs and the cellar was cool but cold in winter with the bare wall and concrete floor. After many years and I got older I dismantled the layout my mother packed the trains away in boxes and put them in the attic which is where they still are, I'm 64 now and own the house both mom and dad are gone, I keep wanting to go in the attic and go through all my old toys that my mother lovingly packed away but I know it will be too emotional, I can't even write this without tearing up, I can't even listen to the song toyland without crying my eyes out.

He surprised me on Christmas morning! I’m 70 now and still think back on those great childhood memories. I miss my parents every single day.

      If you shop around you can find good deal on engines, i have bought modern diesels for under $100 which is less then most my n scale engines and cars for $5-20 before. Our local club has a train show at Entertrainment Junction 2 times a year I have had a table setup before full of used like new cars for $15 each it just takes time to find the good deals sometimes but they are out there

      It's all about a group of friends getting together to run their trains. Plus it could be a freight train with all empty cars lol.

      I am sorry I thought I had that edited out but missed it. Unfortunately Jonathan that said those horrible words can be childish. I will do my best to not miss anything like that amd remove it when posting in the future.
