Lets have some fun [:D] [:)] [8D] [:p]

Tom you’re an institution that should be considered a national asset. That layout is great, it always cheers me up on a Sunday morning. Obviously a labour of love and a darn good example of what can be done with toy trains. Cheers mate!
Here is a template for a movie house that will be put together soon. (The right and left edges got chopped a hair when uploaded.)
It will be part of several flat backdrop style buildings. The plan is to print it on card stock or matt photo paper, and possibly mount it on foam core board.
Enjoy,
Birds
Just for the fun of it
Jon

Another video for this week. Better lighting for the Empire State Express.
Warning - this file is nearly 8 MB!
Good Afternoon ! Waiting for race to start !! [yeah]
So thought I would try to throw a couple of pics up…
Our CURRENT layout, still up from Christmas
We have added a few pieces of rolling stock, essentially discovered K-Line (a little late) and MTH
One of our older favorite running pieces. (Purchased in 1974)
Plans for our “new” layout. What a problem it has been, Wet Bar vs 72" radius. The wet bar was over in the far right corner. Moved it and with some ideas from dougdarump, was able to get it all in. Have a minimum 20" inch access along the walls. (Gray area is the exterior walls. Red track is 72" mainline. (Eleveated on right side). 32" trackwork going in next.
Enjoy the race, (Hope Tony Stewart wins) or just enjoy the day and family.
Nice Photo’s everyone! Laz - The folks on your layout will never go thirsty![:P][;)] Like your Hobo Camp also. Take Care all.
Exceptional photos - thanks for sharing!
Every one excellant stuff. Laz that is a great tipple and coaling station. Is it Lioenle and Walthers?
That is what i have been working on to day.
Mostly these coal loads.
Some were very snug, i didnt force them, just got a bigger hammer 
A guy in Pittsburg, Waterman, made me thse lodas personaly. That is a surprise though.
I am sending him some scrip and some Pa RR memrobila, some stock shares and passes, ect for his kindness.
Laz, where is the curling rink?
Who invented that game, Newfoundlanders? Sweeds?
STEVE, NICE job on the coal loads I made abunch of em last year for me and my brother. Coal is cheap here in Pa.
The little coaling station is a Lionel. I think I got it at a show for $12.
The breaker or the large building I scratch built after school in my shop.
CURLING Rink I am going to make tomorrow at school.
We have the dreaded Partent Teachers conferences and no one comes in to see the shop teacher so I am free.
KIETH, thats what makes training GREAT!
That Old Mil plant.
DON, LOVE the car.

ROY KUDOS on your NYC Express.

And Log cars from K Line
I’ve been out most of the day. This is the first I have been on the forum. Great layout shots: Tom (Good as always), Jon (loved the Aerotrain), Roger (Love the stone station), Laz (Looks good, how about some closeups), Don (the new layout should be a winner), Steve it looks like you are a Lehigh Valley fan, Pigseyes (I love log trains but they don’t fit in on my layout). Maybe I will have some pictures to contribute one of these days.
I found a few that I am going to try.
Let’s see if this works now - can you tell me?
Right side of the layout, featuring the turntable, made from a lazy-susan, turned by hand - perfect size for a trolley or small engine. Tredegar Iron Works to the rear - an ‘unfolded’ K-line aircraft hanger
