When you get bit by the toy railroad bug there is little hope for normalcy......landscapes and their scale and proportions are at least half if not two thirds of the obsession !

Go to about the ten minute mark of the following episode of dragnet and watch the eccentric character played by disney animator and inventor of modern camouflage Harper Goff.

I’d love to have a backyard RR. BK, before kids, I had a room just for my layout. Kids have come and gone but I’m still restricted to part of the garage.
