Notes:
This is the American Flyer 1958 "Hit or Miss" set operating under his 2018 Christmas tree and village. The village features 5 Glitter Houses from Dilco, made in Baltimore in the 1950s. Also included are several Plasticville and Department 56 structures. The train set was given to Larry by its original owner who was moving to a retirement home and found Larry via his club's web site. Larry did say that it took quite a bit of restoration and adding back missing parts, but it was well worth the effort when he showed the original owner his set running by showing him the YouTube video.
