my husband used to work with an older gentleman that had a beautiful setup in his garage. He barely had room to store the lawnmower under it all.
He made models of some of his favorite places in New England, and he was working on connecting it to some tracks he started to piece together in the basement.
His wife wasn't too happy about him starting to take over their basement.
His paintwork is just amazing.

We haven't visited in a while, but that might be something we should do to see how far along it has come.

"O" gauge trains. Could be worth something depending on the model & brand. Check 'em out & find some pricing on da interweb.

I have a few myself from my childhood. Lyonel, American Flyer, etc. My favorite is a big, heavy American Flyer with the number 666 on the side. It's slow, but it'll pull every car you can hook to it.

And no, I'm not a 'foamer'. These are just toys from my childhood.


Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.
