Loved the "missle launcher" control by the transformer. So 1960s!

Yes, D 291 brings me back to my love for Lionel trains. What a dream layout! Thank you for your careful preservation to this priceless part of history!!

Joe Falk toy store, downtown Kansas City, MO. He had an HO layout with a touch-sensitive big red circle. When you touched it, the trains would run! Prob 1958, showing my age...

):29 I see myy Lackawanna engine and the silver passenger cars that were pulled by a New York Central pair of diesels in the background. My father's amazing Christmas displays including a Lionel smoking Pennsylvania RR steam engine that was from 1949, the year I was born. AND THE BUMPER CAR Now the trains are split up among me, my brother, and my two sisters. Such wonderful memories. Thank you

I think the first place i saw a large store Christmas layout I think it was at the Woolworth store in Oakpark Illinois. My grandma and I always went there during the Christmas season. Alwsys had a good time stayed with grandma. Have a blessed weekend everyone

Sportsman’s, Storm Lake, Iowa ran a layout every Christmas. Earliest I most likely would remember would be 1952 or 1953. Got my train from there in 1954. Still have it, but have not set it up to run in over 20 years. Have the original transformer and unhooking track section!

What camera are you using to get those shots from the front of the train?

Very nice restoration, was wondering if you got the lower "main" track to operate two trains as per the directions included with the layout? regards Rob W.
