Tinplaters O & Std. Gauge- show us your Halloween theme layouts, older and newer

Carey TeaRoseOGR Forum Member

I do not generally really do (temporary) theme layouts, such as Halloween or Christmas. And frankly I'm not so big on Halloween in general myself- though I DO appreciate and enjoy seeing others'!!

Even if you have posted these in the past, please show pics and/or vids of your Halloween Layouts.

Since my idea of a small O-Gauge Halloween themed layout on our front porch to share with the trick-or-treaters is not going to be possible this year- I am in the planning stages of creating one- a 4x6 table top placed on two folding card tables in the Foyer. Purely for Tom's and my amusement.

Drove last night 10/16/2020 out to a local Menards and a Michaels. Everything is sold out! All the Xmas buildings and accessories are out! Went online and ordered two Lemax Spooky Town Halloween buildings; a Dead Construction Zone one from Michaels and a Zombie Jazz Cafe one from eBay. Both 2020 designs. Hoping these will both make here in time for Halloween!

Thanks Carey,

It is an MTH set i put together using an 8E, and 300 series passenger cars. I had bought 3 extra roofs from MTH Parts, so that I could paint gloss black, and switch the roofs out at Halloween. However, I never got around to painting them.

Not layout, but just completed repainting this Lionel Christmas set after modifying it to run on std gauge track.

Lemax buildings:

Some of the Menards still had some last week. https://www.ehobbytools.com/ also has a great selection. They are the guys that bring the Lemax to York.

We usually have an open house at the club during the Candy Corn Express event at the museum. I try to change a few things around for that date. From last year:
