A train would be fun had one under the tree when I was a kid, now a days with an attack dachshund it would never work. That little bastard is a destroyer…..

Ok. I’m scared to ask.



But what the hell are people doing with/to/on/in trains these days?

We've been wanting to start doing this but with a little toddler we wanted to wait until he was old enough to not want to grab it and play with it. This was right before he was born, not under the tree but made due. Have a big selection of train cars and accessories from my grandpa that got passed down to me.

This wasn't even all of the cars/locomotives, I was just limited on space. Also have a spotlight car that sill works and a track cleaner car, as well as a small US Army locomotive.

I still need to setup my Lego Harry Potter train under the tree, maybe I'll do that tonight...

There are some rare and expensive versions of that trolley. Otherwise, it is common. You should get a close up and I can tell you whether you have one of the rare versions.

the cattle cars are notoriously unreliable, it is unusual to find one that still works well

This is the closest I have right now. Can take a better picture this evening. I definitely lost track of this thread.
