Another amazing bit of history Carey. Thanks for sharing and keeping these items in great condition. That 1938 20th Century looks new.

Out of curiosity, who is the manufacturer of the Alco PAs on the inside track? I have several cast bronze HO shells from a company called Cambro that I know nothing about and they look similar to the ones you have on your layout.
