Well my layout is in my garage attic so it gets too hot in the dead of summer and costs an arm and a leg to heat in the winter so I find that most of my MRR time is in the spring and fall.

I've enjoyed many Christmas times with Lionel size layouts around the tree and even taking up the whole living room, but like the Christmas tree itself everything has to be put away sooner or later.

What do you call the O scale Lionel size train sets when they only have two rails?
This does a good job of explaining the differences and similarities between O gauge (Lionel) and O scale.

I hear ya about having to break down the layout. That's why I picked the garage attic. Not even the cat goes up there. I can start projects and leave them laid out until I am ready to continue which can be weeks.
