Post Pictures from your Childhood Layout

This is the only photo I know of from my childhood.  My layouts were strictly carpet centrals so they didn't last long enough for much picture taking.

I'm on the left.  My little sister is in the middle and my younger brother is on the right.

Some photos of a layout I had in 1979. Remember buying the Coke Cola set for a whopping $28. The last photo is an earlier layout.

 I only wish I had photos of my layout, but  they would have been Daguerreotype,

Anyhow I am still in my childhood, second third ?? I forget,

Looking forward to seeing all the post and bring back the memories.

From about 1970 - 1971:

Sometime during tha latter '40's...

...when all things were possible and life was full of magic places...

This is one of the only pictures I know of my trian set.  Christmas 1958 Dad showing me how it works.  The train is on my current layout and now my grandson is enjoying it with me.   Wish Dad could see it now.

There is one somewhere, I will have to do a great deal of digging.

Mine were on carpet, carefully supervised for a time.

Me at about 3 years old.

Well, I'd share pictures of my childhood layout but I think they'd be a little current

My brother and I (ca.1971).

Well, this isn't my layout. It's from "Shorpy". Christmas 1953. Don

Only have video...... 1956-63.

Peter

not me, but this photo was in the box when i purchased the Flyer Comet.

if you recognize yourself, drop me a note and you can have your picture back.

...i'm going to keep the train, though. 

cheers...gary
