Really nice setup! Not too much and perfect for under the tree...I am gonna give the train thing a go for the first time this year but hope to make it a tradition!!!
Excellent layout! I am amazed that your train doesn't derail at the downhill speed, as it goes around bends. That is where I am having issues. I have to stay on the controls and slow the speed when the trains descends...I love it if I could just keep the train at One Speed...far too slow on the incline, or far too fast on the decline. Of course, I have more than just an overlapped figure 8 as this configuration is... Maybe I'm just being too ambitious.
When the video started, it was such a tight shot, I couldn't see the tree. I was saying, "that's not a Christmas tree set up, there's no tree.!" I finally saw it, very nice layout.
I love this plan. This years 2014 December issue of Classic Toy Trains Magazine has a great article on this plan and about some folks that modified it. For those seeking this plan you can google "3 times around the tree plan"or log onto to Classic Toy Trains Magazine and you will find it in their plans section. It was featured in their 2014 December edition and in their 2006 December edition.
That is a Nice little layout,If i ran mine that fast it would probably derail. I just finished one around my sons ceiling and used 0-27 which is a Pretty Sharp Curve but from what i hear you can run The Polar on it?
i love the layout i would like to build one like this for christmas this year..... do you think you could also send me a layout plan and track list. I would really appreciate your help. thank you.
Very cool layout! I just completed my first Christmas tree layout made with HO scale, but it's just a simple oval, with a church, train station, cars and people. Yours is very interesting and I must admit the Polar Express train seems to be very well designed. What is your opinion of it as a train set?
@tchic13 Do you think you could also send me a track plan and track list I would like to make this layout for Christmas this year. I would really appreciate it. Thank you.

Great idea
Oh and another thing: Did all that track come in the train set box, or did you have to buy more to extend the layout?
How much does it cost for the Polar Express I like to get one and Florida
What type of track are those? You have a really nice layout.

Wow this was exactly the same set I had long ago, unfortunately it was destroyed last year from our basement being flooded. 😢
I'm sorry to hear and it sucks because O scale trains are expensive as hell
Also merry Christmas i hope you get your train back!
good job
is it the from 2002 or is that the regular set ?
can you tell me how many pieces of each track you used
Where did you bought the tracks at?
Where did you bought that train at?
How can this train even move if the fireman and the engineer are sitting on the front of the locomotive?????
Well for one thing the hero girl is driving and two, this is actually an o gauge electric train
