These are two photos of our 2012 Christmas train store at Richardson Farms in Baltimore, Maryland. In addition to being our store's demonstration layout, the train layout was also for the benefit of the Johns Hopkins Children's Center. Collection boxes were at 2 corners of the layout for voluntary donations to the cause. 100% of the donations went to the Children's Center. Bravo, to our customers and the general public for their generosity.

Posing with me, below, is one of the many Johns Hopkins Children's Center success stories, Bridget Dively, the Children's Center's 2012 poster child. Bridget was born with severely damaged heart. After many surgeries as an infant and toddler, Bridget is a healthy child expected to live a happy life. Seeing such miracles of medicine gave special meaning to our charity campaign. Thanks to all who donated.

T8afao, Wow, I like the red borders, very cool idea, you chose the perfect color of red. In the mid 1970’s, there was a really nice man in Chattanooga Tennessee that had a 25 by 25 layout in his basement, it had a beautiful red border board 1 by 4, attached at a 45 degree angle all around the walk around layout, I always thought it to be a cool idea. Everyone, your pictures are Amazing. Have a fun Thursday.
