Memorial Day on The MaP - Original Marx & New Marx Army Trains

For Memorial Day I broke out an original Marx Army Train for the lower level while the Plateau saw a New Marx Army Supply train. The Plateau was dressed for the occasion being set up as an Army installation. I also completed a 'concrete' bridge so that residents of the Plateau can now travel off-board. Compare this video with last years' video and you'll see just how much progress has been made on The Marxville and Plateau. Enjoy!

@JEFFNMANDA3 Thanx Jeff!  Sorry for the late reply! It was a lot of fun but the layout is still a mess from this project. Don't know when the next video will be. I started working on a Halloween themed town for the MaP with some really cool paper haunted houses & stuff but at the rate it's going it won't be ready 'til next year!

@grizzleybearz282004 Mnay Thanx! I would love to do more military themed stuff but there are other projects I want to get out of the way first, so I'll have to wait for that 'military feel' to cycle around again!

Thanks for putting out such a great video Ed.. Really enjoyed this in every aspect... The layouts coming along really nice, love the bridge and plateau.... Cool viaduct with the trolley too... All the little accessories you've collected are incredible... Trucks, tanks, helo's, And the trains of course !!! Loved the new & old, both ran great and looked clean.. Great choice of tunes also... All gave some, Some gave All & We Thank them All !!!

@puttrainguy Dan, it seems the more I try to do the behinder I get! Can you believe I totally brain-dumped a whole bunch of my channel comments? So very sorry!! Many Thanx for your comments and am glad ya liked the video. I would like to highlight more of the toys I've collected but sometimes it's a real job just trying to excavate them out of the Man Cave! But - where there's a will......... Many Thanx! Ed

Wow! What can I say? I love the scenery, the trains, the military toys, the Marx collection, the video, the choice of music and the graphics.

Well done!

Many Thanx Dan! I'm started to get a hankerin' to do some scale work again - perhaps some craftsman kit structures up on the Plateau. The toys have been fun but I'm starting to miss scale. I don't know what I'll do yet, there's so many other projects in the works and the blog takes time as well. Glad you liked the video and glad to Support Our Troops!
