Looks like you really had a fun and great day Glad it came out so great for you like you conductor offit it added so much to it
Yeah!, the conductor’s hat was a great touch. I may try the same in the future. While I don’t have a conductor’s hat, I do have my old “Class A” uniform from the FD. I can shake the dust off her and change out the Lt’s badge for a “NYC” badge.
Also a great idea to spread the interest to the next generation of this great hobby!

Brad,
You are very welcome. I am glad that the book worked out. I can just imagine what the reaction of the kids was like. (Any pictures of their reactions?) I took trains to school on several occasions for our children. I remember one particular time when our son’s class was supposed to do some kind of project on what they wanted to do for a career. For our son there was no other option than to be a train engineer, so we took an oval of Flyer S gauge to school and a steamer and passenger cars. To say the least his presentation was a big success.
I think its great that you share your hobby with your children. And maybe this will spur you on to play with your trains now that Train Season is offically here.
Have a great Train Thanksgiving
