First an update to an earlier post: This past January 5 I posted the scans to the Built-Rite #56-1 Church HOWEVER it was missing one piece which has since been identified as the tower roof. For a more complete update visit the post here:

Today for Train Time I thought I'd do something a little different. For the next couple of weeks I'm going to share some pics taken at the Nürnberg Verkehrsmuseum (Nuremburg Transportation Museum) way back in 1989. This was kind of an odd trip as it was only a day trip for us. We got in the car, motored down to Nuremburg, found the museum, played tourist, and came right back home! I always wanted to go back and see more of this magnificent city but somehow we just never made it! sigh......
