Beside us, we had placed a literature table with booklets provided by Classic Toy Train magazine and our own handouts.
The skier accessory is atop the hill, and near the foreground is a Victorian carousel. Another trolley comes into view.
Here is a long view of our little layout
Black Lionel 2-4-2 is alongside the trolley

Here they come! From left to right, the Thor gun carrier hauls a line of tin cars, the SP FA in the lead with a freight consist. Next is the Industrial Rail Trolley, and on the end the Blue Train is pulled by the red Commodore Vanderbilt. The red glow under the "Vandy" is from the headlight.
Sparky the M10000 sits idle on the table. The 'Vandy" takes the far curve.
The skier animation atop the hill has racing skiers, and the Victorian carousel behind the trees has horses and riders. Kids also loved the old tin Marx crossing gates.
On the "idle track" are two Marx NYC streamliners and a pair of 6" red coaches. The Thor locomotive comes up alongside them with its consist of cars. At far right, the Vandy and Blue Train make another run-by.
