Great to see Tony out and about!
I've never met him but I've heard he's very friendly.
Also I'm curious, I have heard that his famous layout is not gone but is disassembled and stored somewhere.
Nice to hear. Thanks Dotty.
Yes, MJ, Tony's layout was taken down when he moved out of this area and is currently stored away.
Nice to see he is still out there and still into trains.
Yes, it’s great to see he still loves Model trains. The videos of his train layout and ideas were very inspirational to me and a driving force for me to build my personal layout. Thanks for this post and the above pictures with Marty Fitzhenry, and Ted (go Jett’s) Bertiger and of course Alan, The Adman! Good to see Mr.Tony Lash...Happy Railroading....
Great seeing Tony, and everyone else today!

Wow, a blast from the past!
I was pleasantly surprised to see Tony yesterday at York. It had been a long time since I or anyone else had seen him at York. Was glad to see he came back to the York show.
Dotty,
Could you expand on what you posted, above: "Tony and the new Publisher of OGR, Alan Arnold."
Thanks!

Glad to see Mr Lash alive and well. I was lucky enough to visit his layout back in the day. It was memorable.
They announced that Alan as of November 1st will be the publisher of OGR at the OGR Forum meeting on Friday afternoon. Myron Biggars the previous publisher of OGR was at the forum meeting as well. Jim and Ed aren’t ready to retire but Rich is ready to slow down and do some traveling with Linda.

The Tony Lash layout’s impact goes well beyond size. It’s as finely detailed as any scale layout you’ll see.

I was walking between halls on Thursday when I see this big white car coming towards me with the iconic square grille capped by a winged figure. The Rolls gets closer, I see Florida license plates. Sure enough, it was the jolly man with the long white beard himself! Not a bad way to make the long road trip to York!

GREAT to see him again. Certainly one of the better toy train guys around.
Definitely unexpected seeing Tony at York. It's been years since he has been there. Always attended the AOL Bbqs at York with his wife and son, Duke from 20 years ago.
We go back to the AOL online gang days where we always posted on those train boards and had the official orange vs purple wars! We reminisced about those past days and argued many a times who was better, Lionel or MTH! Lol!
A true gentleman in our hobby and who had the best sceneced layout next to the real Norfolk Southern line!
Great to see very good friend in this hobby!
P.S. Tony. I will have to bring dahdah911(Neil) to York for you.

Gary ... NO problem!!! And, many thanks.
I'm still traveling so I didn't have the time to do any corrections. You've done them very well.
Much appreciated.

All good memories, Ted. Great to see Tony again. Thanks!
It was great running into Tony Last and chatting with him.
I too was very pleased to catch up with Tony aside his RR. After being away from York for almost 2 years, I was thrilled to be back and see so many of my friends...especially two of my closest⤵
Great seeing Tony, who was one of our best customers. We hope that we will be seeing him again as he tools across America!
