Christmas trains running!

Our annual Christmas display is a highlight of the season.  I’m a little late getting it up since we visited Keely and Mark over Thanksgiving weekend.   However, I finally have three trains in motion again around our tree.  One of them is the new (to me) 1776 bicentennial engine that my brother Phil purchased in a deal and let me buy from him cheaply.  I have since found a caboose and three cars to match.  It’s always just a little different from the year before.  Here’s a rough video of it in motion.   The clunks are because the cameraman got too close to the action and nearly derailed a train.
