This is my layout for Christmas 2008. It consists of 4 trains and a bunch of Dept. 56 houses. Enjoy!

Our new and much smaller apartment on Elmdale Ct in Shorewood WI houses this year's Christmas Forest 2009 edition with the new Department 56 houses. Boxes from the houses, along with magazines and books, provided the roadbed for the Harry Potter Hogwart. The LGB Christmas Train worked the lower level.

Mom has a small collection of Department 56 Dicken's Village pieces. Here's a time lapse video of setting up the village for the 2009 Christmas season. Realv time is about 2.5 hours, that includes a visit from one of the neighbors for a few minutes. This is one of my chores each year. The other is helping Dad put up the christmas lights.

Cory Jones as Martin Luther King, Jr. Directed by Ya'Ke Smith.

Old New York City. A scene in great detail w/a mixture of both Dickens' & Christmas in the City, by Department 56. The Building & street lights actually work & sidewalks, roads, people and many more wonderful details that make for great memories at Christmas.
