The "Old Layout"

The picture is not to clear, but then neither is my memory.  But, I know I was a lucky child and I do remember we had a train layout typical of the 1950's style shown above.  Our's was on a piece of plywood that simply laid flat on the floor. 



I am still a lucky guy.  The old layout looked big to me and it was 32 square feet, but in a few weeks we will be looking at something that is over 1,000 square feet!  I guess we all are pretty darn lucky, thank you MGRS, we can't wait to see this years layout!
