This year, for Christmas I built a 3' x 5' Christmas train layout. It has a pedestal with a permanently mounted Christmas tree stand...so the tree sits right above the layout. Thus...the B&B's Christams Branch Line. It has a tunnel, a truss bridge, a Christmas village...and even a frozen ice skating pond! Here are some pics.
