Thor's Trains do it again!
The Tinplate World is where Thor runs classic toy trains for the kids. These are the most popular with children.
The Blue Comet is on the outer track. The inner track has the animated cars and hand car. |
A small farm and animated carousel are all the scenery we need. |
On this run, the 65 year old Marx "Commodore Vanderbilt" red locomotive pulls the Comet. The red locomotive is a big favorite with children. |
Here are two things that the children love: the Joe & Teddy Clown handcar, and the train with the animated Toy Story and Bug Bunny cars. You can see Buzz and Woody o nther blue gondola, and Bugs emerging from the top of the orange stock car. |
There is a lot to see: animated train, handcars and the red :"Vandy" rolling along the outside track |
The carousel is one Thor uses at Lakewood and other shows he does. It moves and plays music. See the army man under the trestle? It was placed there by another club member as a joke. Thor runs a website about plastic toy soldiers (http://www.thortrains.net/.armymen/) He also runs a massive website about all kinds of trains ( http://www.thortrains.net/) |
