How many of you have Model Train Sets?

I had one when I was a kid. It was in our basement, and my dad spent years working on it. We had three different full trains that went around the whole set.

The set was about the size of a large trampoline. We built bridges and tunnels, some of which were in crazy shapes and sizes. One of them was a spiral that went two feet off the table. We had little old-timey men (bought from the train model store) that stood by the trains and on the sidewalks. They were all less than an inch tall. My dad got an old fashioned train station model and put it on there, as well as various other buildings.

It’s hard for me to remember every last detail. I was nine when they took it down. ): Apparently it “took up too much space”. I mainly remember the fact that the table was taller than I was, and that my dad never let me touch it. My brother was allowed to touch it, of course, since he was a boy and knew more about trains then I did… even though he was only a year older than me. Psh.

We might still have the set lying around somewhere in the attic, it would be cool to take it out again.
