That's a hobby I wish I had room for. I set up a small track every Christmas around the tree. Nothing too large. I do have plans for a tresseled layout, I may get around to next year.
Attached photo is the CNR No 6060, a semistreamlined 4-8-2 called known as once known as Bullet Nosed Betty. Attached is a 52 ft express refrigerator car, 52 ft express box car, 72 Ft Smoothside Passenger Diner, 72 Ft Smoothside Passenger Mid Train Dome and ending with a 72 Ft Smoothside Passenger Tail End Observation car.
Built in 1944, this train was saved from the scrap yard in the 60's and has run (currently under restoration) as the Spirit of Alberta.
For those of you whom are in Scotland, this is Canada's Flying Scotsman.

That photo reminds me of the time I asked my wife if I could run the tracks through one of her kitchen cabinets.

This was just before last Christmas, and the Con-Cor cars I had ordered just got in. I had to see my small set together.
