A 1/76 Leyland Omnibus by Corgi drops off an Medieval Re-enactor off at the job site on my OO (1/76)
British layout. A delightful, and unexpected, gift from Microbusss. Thanks, Micro!!! My daughter
and I are planning a new video around this piece...

ok guys
I found out what the sound platform came from
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Tyco-Sesame-Street-Turnover-Choo-Choo-Train-Big-Bird-Ernie-Elmo-Playset-/172619980043?hash=item2830f3dd0b%3Ag%3AYKgAAOSwCU1Y4mOm&nma=true&si=RLXcm0HczaD0VnnPwHf1Uy%252B6Vso%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

Now I do have the non Sesame Street ones as regular & deluxe version in the box & I did get the loco fixed on it since I got a set for free cause loco didn't work
