Getting ready for the holiday layout 2006

Gonna start setting up the annual holiday layout the day after Thanksgiving this year. I have some new items I have collected throughout the year to add.

Here is how my introduction to this hobby got started with the LGB Christmas starter set my wife gave me for Christmas 3 years ago (2003). http://timothydehan.com/redmondcreekrr/videos/ChristmasTrainSet2003-3_0001.wmv Here is where it progressed the following year (2004) to a double reverse loop. http://timothydehan.com/redmondcreekrr/videos/SantaTrain2004-3.wmv Last year we added a few more items including a trolley and changed the reverse loop hook up (2005). http://timothydehan.com/redmondcreekrr/videos/christmaslayout_2005_5.wmv Stay tuned for what is coming this year. For more images an videos check out the following page on my website. http://timothydehan.com/redmondcreekrr/homelayouts.htm

Finally got the video done so I could share. We were without power for 9 days last week just before Christmas so I was unable to work on any of this.

Here is the Redmond Creek Railroad Santa Claus train 2006. Enjoy!

The following are the same video clip but in different sizes. Please select the size that works best for your internet connection.
