CHRISTMAS LAYOUT SATURDAY NOVEMBER 28, 2009

[home]

VIEW FROM OUTSIDE - Don has made us a very nice sign and installed it a couple days before Thanksgiving.

VIEW FROM THE FRONT - The Christmas Tree layout is on the right by the win-dow and the main layout stretches along the left wall, with plenty of viewing room.

WINDOW DISPLAY - There is a two-track layout around the Christmas Tree with lots of buildings, trees, people, and other details, thanks to Don and Bev.

NEW FERRIS WHEEL - Built from a C'NEX kit by Manny. The remainder of the Carnival Scene has been set up by Joe S, including lots of animated rides.

OCT-O-SQUEEZE - New this year is a scary Octopus ride.  The riders are witches, Dracula, and other scary Halloween characters.

HEARTBREAK MINE - This mine was built by Dick when he was healing from heart surgery.  Get it?  The metal siding is made from soda cans.

PROUND OWNER - Dick is posing behind Bel Air Station.  The real one has been torn down long ago but Dick found the original plans.

PIPELINE CONSTRUCTION - Joe's two construction modules feature a moving backhoe (out of the picture), crane, and dump truck.

SOFTAIL GARAGE - Don has some new motorcycles this year.

COALING STATION - Or is it coal for the stockings of naughty boys and girls?

OLD FASHIONED SERVICE - great for those nice vintage cars.

BURMA SHAVE SIGNS - The only road in Maryland that has them!
