Idk. Model railroads have a particular place in my heart. Garden sized ones are new to me though.
I had a great uncle who had an enormous setup in his basement. As a kid I was always fascinated with it. He died when I was 13 and I wasn’t ready for that.
My parents have an LGB train set that they got to put around the tree each Christmas, and added to it a little bit each year. It was a great memory for me.
IMO it’s a very appropriate scale for that use-case, even if it’s intended to be “garden” sized.
I’m annoyed that they’ve refused to either give it to me or continue displaying it themselves for Christmas, depriving their grandkids of the experience I had.
They’re so expensive. My parents change up what they display for Christmas between the LGB and a lego train. The actual lego train they put up changes too. They live nearby, so it’s a special enough treat for my boy and my nephew.
