John Foley and his grandson Colin have been busy at the "Toys For Tot's" Train Display at 57 S. Commerce Way, Bethlehem, Pa. Hosted by "Train Time" TV show and the U.S. Marines. The "Train Time" folks and staff and other clubs with layouts are doing a great job. Jamie Bothwell has helped out with his spare time. Also Mike Pragheimer has set up a small AF Layout. The little ones get a big kick out of running that. Of course the NASG switching layout is putting on quite a show. Folks who are thinking about getting trains for the kids or them selves are very impressed with the size and quality of S. They also marvel at the way DCC operates. Some think its magic. The "Train Time" folks hope too see many thousands of folks visiting the layouts and dropping off a toy or cash donation.
