Wonderful things, back in the day. Copper plated steel, quality all the way. Now all plastic and tech-y. I haven't been in the model railroad club and all that since my
affairs de coeur got all dramatic, and after that, I got married, and that was that. A shame, in a way, I had a very nice replica of The Broadway Limited, which tells you where I stood as an American model railroader. I was a Pennsylvania Railroad aficionado, and most of those around me were New York Central. Great club, great fellows. Fine miniature railway lay-out.
