When my kids were little we had a good collection of wooden trains. I collected a few specialty trains (especially B&O which my grandfather worked on) with the hopes of doing a complicated display someday, which never happened. I started selling them off last year. I still have a few left and happened to put a few on the HiT tracks out of curiosity and was amazed how well they worked. So it will be fun to add a little more variety. Of course now I'm a little sorry I sold that limited edition Santa Fe Warbonnet train I had. It would have looked nice going around the layout.
The pine trees were in a box of old items that were given to me. They were a bright green with sparkles, I'm guessing old Christmas decorations, so I spray painted them darker and mounted them to a permanent base. They were originally for a wargame project but work great for the trains.
