So You Want A Model Railroad?

For those of you who remember or have heard of how innocent the era of the 50's was could relate to this 1955 black and white video about model train infatuation. It reminded me of an Episode of the Twilight Zone. I had a few chuckles thinking that Mr. Joe McDoakes is probably a Member here at BluePlasticTracks. Big Grin

Quote:This is a 1955 Educational Comedy in which a Lionel O-Gauge model train layout and an obsessive collector leads to numerous comical situations.
