Re: Lets see your "Under the Christmas Tree" layout

ToledoEdOGR Forum Member DIGITAL SUBSCRIBER

Finally finished the layout under the tree. xtree santa The house is the "Christmas Story" House...one of our all time favorite Christmas movies. We visited my hometown, Cleveland, last year to show my grandson his Grandpa's childhood home, and just up the street was the Christmas Story House and Museum/Souvenir shop. They filmed the movie in that house. While there, I picked up the Christmas Story car to ad to the scene. The scene includes the "Major Award" and the kid with his tongue stuck to the flagpole. Enjoy.

Merry Christmas and a most Happy and Healthy New Year!

Already a thread for Christmas layouts 2020... but seeing as this one is getting more posts... then I reckon this one is the winner!

There are at least 3, plus a tinplate specific one. Can we get a consensus on which is the "official" 2020 thread?

I didn't notice this one (link below) that originated in August had been resurrected prior to me starting one the day after Thanksgiving.

Mea culpa.

That so, then as far as I'm concerned it's the go-to Christmas layout thread for 2020.

This was the layout I could have only dreamed about when I was 10 years old in 1962. A combination of Lionel and MLB. The buildings are all Department56 and ornaments are Hallmark. Everything is MLB licensed. It was 58 years in the making.

The Dept 56 buildings work very well with o gage trains, those are so great layouts.

My 2020 layout. I often move buildings and things around, but this year I added a skating pond and a sledding hill. I also brought back my Santa Pylon after a two year absence. Think my dog has finally settled down enough that she won’t eat him.
