My first adventure in to O gauge toy trains. Around Christmas I bought a Lionel Polar Express set with a loop of track to put under the Christmas tree. It soon gave me the O gauge bug and I bought additional track, ceramic and porcelain buildings, and figures to make a complete small “North Pole” layout. The layout is made with Lionel FasTrack. All turns are O-36 and the layout is powered with a classic CW-80 watt transformer. The layout sets on an 8 x 8-foot counter top. Just thought I’d show it off. Will be expanding soon and hope to buy some Department 56 and Lemax buildings soon. Enjoy!
