Toy Trains & Christmas, Parts 1, 2, 3
By the early fifties, toy trains were as much a part of Christmas as Santa Claus and the Christmas tree. Kids fell asleep reading the Lionel catalog and dreaming about what engine, freight car, or new accessory they would get for Christmas. Memories of those happy times have lasted. And that s what this video is about toy train Christmas memories. It s also about Christmas layouts that capture the marvelous time when we were young, and it was Christmastime snow falling, sparkling street lamps, red ribbons, gaily wrapped presents, and colorful holiday lights. I think the best was when we were kids, says Dennis Piotrowski, creator of a 40x60 foot layout that celebrates Christmas in the mid-fifties. We cherish those times. Maybe they didn t last long enough. Now we are making those times last longer width our toy train layout. All aboard for a joyous Christmas ride to a magical land filled with toy trains, tiny lights, one-horse open sleighs, and a wonder of Christmas.
