Disappearing S Gauge train - a fourteen foot long train disappears into a 4 foot long tunnel. This layout has been built for a couple of years but just had scenery and detail added this year. Numerous people just walk past the layout at shows thinking it is a train going thru a tunnel on an oval layout. Those that actually stand and watch it for a few minutes realize that it disappears and the smiles come. I had this layout at the 08 Spring S Spree in Dayton and there were only a few people that noticed it was a disappearing train. I didn't have any signs on it to test how observant the train crowd actually is.
Yep I know you let some track hang out so it looked like it would take it longer to get out

Great layout. Looks like a lot of hard work went in to putting this one together.

I saw this layout in person and I know how it works but it is still a lot of fun to watch.

Cool! An American Flyer twist on a famous Lionel display layout from the 50's that I'd read about but never until now seen in action. 60 years later that layout is still amazing to watch in operation.
