Oldies, but goodies. Not too many free standing model train clubs in the US. This one dated to, near as can be told, 1949. Moved around a few times until it landed at its present location in what used to be a 1960's Great Society Program Soup Kitchen. What's new is old.

Sure wish I hadn't seen those four Auto Train passenger cars. That's two more than I have Chops! You know I now have to find some more!
