Clapperclaus, <P.P.S. After writing my story the other day I went to a hobby store and bought a real Lionel train set for the boys and they set it up around the tree. They love it!> Beautiful - we'll hang this on on the tree too!! Altair19

trainman- Upon hearing this, my father searched through the attic and FOUND our old set and gave it to us. The old locomotive still works! Still shoots tiny sparks and everything as it motors around the track. i bet that's one of the best christmas gifts you'll ever receive <s> -rose

Hey, Claps, tell me about the new Lionel stuff. How does it compare to what we had/ have now? I say have because most of the family stuff is still at Mom's, and I have a few things here, because Fuzzerella decided she wanted to play with the train, and the grandfather's heart melted and gave her the extra transformer and a few cars. She played with it a few times, and it has been sitting on a shelf in her old room for about l0 years. I still think maybe I'll try to abscond with the whole deal after Mom dies, and do something with it. Kid
