 "All Aboard for the Norwood Junction '5R' Railroad. Our family
is heavily involved in trains, so we decided to not just keep them indoors, but to put them
out-doors as well. The first year we did our outdoor layout, it was approximately 24 feet
long by 15 feet wide. This year we decided to tear up more grass and extend the layout to
approximately 36 feet long by 15 feet wide. Since we have put in the layout, we have added
more perennials and only a few annuals to add color. We also added a small pond and a Japanese
weeping maple to the yard. We have six tracks so that we can run six trains at one time. We
have plans to add new things each year to our railroad, so we are never boring."
