yeah, I live in Bristol, and I've gone up to see them on occasion but they're rather pricey in there and kind of a hike so I tend to shy away from really going there too much :/

I belong to a club in Canton Connecticut, the layout is in the Canton Historical Museum, It's pretty cool, you should come visit us every thursday at 6:30pm

I have a ton of photo albums on my facebook page :)

I especially like the old Mantua steamer running around the layout.

I can't imagine why...

It is a great layout but video jumps from scene to scene too fast.  Also some of the consists make no sense (four locomotives pulling 4 cars)
