real nice job. perfect scenery to let the trains be the stars. how did you make the guard rail for your highway? i couldn't find anything like you have. I had to make mine old school polls and cables. Super nice collection you have to run as well. I'd like to be around sixty years from now to see if the new trains still run like I'm sure the old Lionel's will still be rolling down the rails. I'd bet they won't. Love the post war... still the best !!
@2344F3 - I bought the guard rails & sprayed them silver. They are from FX racing. you can find them on Ebay or at a LHS. I doubt any of that new stuff will be running in 60 years - or 20! I had a bunch of TMCC & DCS engines & as nice as they are, something was always breaking on them. I sold them all off. I'd rather have postwar and MPC. NO, they aren't scale, but they capture the magic of Lionel so well!
This is a very well done, "Classic Toy Train Layout" Like the old whistle sounds. This is what Lionel is all about.
