Memories of Christmas Past

One of Tom's favorite memories as a child, was his mother taking him downtown Cincinnati to see the miniature train display at Christmas time. Since we were not in Cincinnati, it would be hard to recreate that memory completely. But found a good substitute here at home.
Jim Huges' Santa Express Train Show

Tom had a great time.
The exhibit features mountains and valleys, a large town, farm and ranch lands, an amusement park, zoo, airport, circus and much more. 19 trains, 340 automobiles and trucks. 250 and 1850 people. 1000 feet of track.


Santa's Express is truly a labor of love, and a gift to our community from the Hughes' family.
Thanks for the memories and next time you are in town will be bringing the grandchildren to add to their Christmas memories.
