Thanks Sam. I wasn't aware of those and found one on Ebay. She is asking $550.00 for reissue. Going to try to find out what it retailed for at issue in 2009.
This is not the one I was trying to find but may work out well. The ones I had seen were the SMARTT custom built animations. One was set in a big department store front window (sort of like a Macy's or Marshall Fields big stone/brick store) 40s era.
I tried finding those again, as it was at least 2 years ago. Gave up after a few hours on youtube. The sheer number of MRR layout videos on there is overwhelming, but great to see such a growing interest again.
The Lionel one will probably work for what I was wanting to do, but I will modify the store structure shell itself for an earlier time period. May take it off completely and use the interior with the animated layouts. Was really wanting to do one of the old brownstone type department stores with the big front windows. Remember going every Christmas to Marshall Field's and all the Christmas storefronts down State Street and Michigan Ave to see all the animated windows and the train layouts in the store fronts.
Was wanting to recapture that scene.
It is great to have such a deep well of information here. Thanks once again
