From the scrool bar on Fox News…

I remember being aghast in previous years of this publicity-gimmick (mind you, a good one for the museum) when Lionel was unchosen. Lots of interesting previous choices…

It’s about time! They’ve been around 106 years & finally someone decided to nominate them. Another plus for our hobby as this will help let folks out in the public know that Toy Trains are still made & sold in the Marketplace. Take Care.

Here, here! My thoughts exactly.

I have just recently gotten back into model trains after about a 50 year absence. Getting back into Lionel trains has brought back so many memories of my past with my dad which has long past. I loved him dearly and he was the one that got me stated in trains in the first place. I never seemed to have the time place or the money to get back into the hobby. Now I have a place and I have the time but still no money. When I heard of the induction this morning I really could not control my emotions. Its is a ceremony long long past due and congratulations Lionel an event well deserved.
