Bill,

You folks always put on a very good display!

We're hoping to get there to see it again this year!

Looking forward to seeing it again this year and take a bunch of pics.

Your group does a fantastic job representing our hobby in your public displays.

Merry Christmas to all of you at the National Capitol Trackers.

Hoping to visit this great holiday display at the museum Friday or Saturday.

Thanks for all the nice words. Crowds have been excellent so far.  The layout is not only a visual treat but really fun to operate. With a turntable, large yard, and mainline crossover, it keeps lots of engineers on their toes!

Here's a few more photos, and I'm working on some movies to show the operations.

Hope to see OGR folks this weekend!

P.S.  Note the special  American Flyer O-gauge set! engine circa 1933, cars even earlier.

Is the museum open today (Tuesday, 24 Dec).  The web site says Christmas Eve, not Christmas Eve day.  Thanks.

Ron

I love the pic of 490 with 490, or was that 490 with 490?

Bob do you know who built the B&O warehouse?

Very nicely done!  A fine display at one of the nation's finest rail museums.

Answers to questions:

Ron, the museum is closed all day on Dec. 24 and 25.  Trackers will be there 26-29. I'll be there 28 and 29.

Jeff: I think that is the 490 with the 490 and the 490 x .25.  Or is it .025? Or .0025?

NicK No, I do not know who built the roundhouse. That is on the Museum's HO gauge railroad, located in a former C&O coach.

Allan: thank you, that is high praise indeed!
