DeaconKC Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 I know several of us enjoy railroad stuff and modeling it as well. I don't have a layout anymore, but a few pieces left. Found this and picked it up. For those of you unfamiliar with this, the Gorre & Daphetid was a legendary model railroad that was lost to fire shortly after it's owner's death. This will make a nice display piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah Bob #35998 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 One of the sweet memories of my youth was the Lionel I received for my 6th birthday. And the Roy Rogers double buscadero rig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imis Twohofon,SASS # 46646 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 The Gorre and Dapheted is an absolute classic. The licensing to use the roadname was short lived, like the layout itself...SCORE Imis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 John Allen was a genius and I used a number of his ideas over the years. My favorite is a 90 degree front refletion mirror under and underpass to make the most amazing trick image you could imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caladisi kid Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 I still have my first 4' x 8' , AHM, HO western themed railroad in my Dad's garage. I have since gotten, and still have, various Christmas train sets in N, HO, O and G scales as well as some metal Lionel sets. I still set one of them up under the tree every year. I still want to make an outdoor layout someday. Choo-Choo away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailrider #896 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 I have a coach similar to the one pictured, which I use on a two-car tourist train on my HO scale layout. I think I also have some other G&D cars somewhere... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
