In the December 2010 issue we chronicled the amazing Christmas display that Rich Cannistra constructs in the four weeks after Thanksgiving. Here are some additional photos that we didn’t have room for in the magazine.

im jealous!
Loved the pictures, but feel free to post one more showing what I'm sure is a beautiful example of the bullet loco pulling the American Flyer Circus cars. Is it the 4-6-2 or the 6-8-6…enquiring minds want to know! (Go American Flyer!!)
Cheers,

Incredible display! Rich and Roxann Cannistra's 16×19 foot s gauge layout is wonderful!

Must be fun to operate!

Hi, Rich and Roxann! I too was a captain and hit the age 60 barrier four years ago. I truly enjoyed the article and truly love this hobby. I model in 1:32 and have an indoor and outdoor layout here in Troy, Montana. Keep enjoying this wonderful hobby! Your New Friend, Dennis C. Crystal
