The Beekeeper is also “The Conductor”, at least of his vintage HO scale Marklin train set. His Dad bought this train set in the early 60’s, and now the Beekeeper has begun to add to the original set. Of course, with only vintage pieces! I’ll take some pictures of our set for a future post. A couple weeks ago we took a field trip to this train shop. They have quite a train display set up, but mainly Lionel. The first pictures are of the smaller HO scale train which was on a shelf under the big set up so it was a little dark for pictures, still fun though.

It amazes me how much thought, time and effort (not to mention money) that train collectors put into these displays. They really are quite impressive up close. So, on to the larger scale Lionel.

This doesn’t even begin to do this set up justice, this is one corner, they have a very large display. It was fun to see it set up and running.
