Not mine but this Santa Fe G gauge was at Bellagio with a POV camera.
The first pictures are our yearly Christmas tree and Lionel train.
The last 2 pictures are the Polar Express layout built this year.

I know that site well!
Quick Update: to my surprise, I received a package from Trainworld today, after not hearing back from them over 3 weeks as to its where abouts. I had assumed the order lost and cancelled. Well, the Golden Goose finally landed! My kids and I could not be more excited! The final pieces to this years Christmas Tree lay out! BELIEVE!!!
That's awesome John! I really want one of those hero boy's houses. Very cool!
Rob, that came out beautifully!!!
Wyatt, the trouble I went through to get this little house this year makes it that much more special. So much that i'm ending up with two, because again, Trainworld dropped the ball on the order, so I ordered it from another vendor. Turns out, the 2nd vendor shipped it to Pennsylvania.....when im located in Oregon. All I can do is laugh at this point
Man, that's An expensive goof! Lol
the things we do for this hobby...
Idea Thinker,
That sure is s lot of space! Are you going to use any of it for a permanent layout?
Mark;
The room is going to be a display room filled with shelves in rows a like a library to display our train collection.
Thanks;

Wow! That will be excellent!!
Finally took a pair of photos of my third layout which is a lot smaller than normal because of "Mount Saint Crapola"...
...that would be the big pile of garage sale items stacked in space that would normally be filled with standard gauge. That's a Lionel Large Scale NYC Atlantic sharing floor space with the 2 Modern Toys locos by the way. Hey! Did you notice my vintage command control remote?
Doesn't affect the clockwork layout! And I still get to run my standard gauge!

not under the tree but a holiday train anyway.
another holiday train.
I wanted to post a short video clip of our train under our tree, is anyone else having problems posting a video? It keeps saying there was a problem with the site and the site has been reloaded.
Christmas 2016
This train is under my daughter and her fiance's tree. It was the childhood set of her babysitters husband. He had given them to me (with boxes - poor condition). It is a Lionel 248 with two 529s and a 530. No real market value but the memories associated with it are priceless.
Merry Christmas everyone.
Oops, forgot the picture.
Okay thank you!

Hi David, like your train and Santa's slede, great Ideas, I assume that the drive/motor power is in Santa's Sled and that the reindeer's just get pushed along. What a great idea.
can't place it....but something bout it looks kinda familiar....

Sawdust, What a charming photo. That is one of the few classy classic photos I have seen. I love it and it truly captures the love of toy trains under the Christmas tree. Those glitterhouses and black and white photo are perfect. Thanks for sharing.
