During tech night on the local radio program, a tech guy who has a website and blog and writes for the tribune mentioned something about "I have model trains in my backyard." To which the host said "Wait trains? Are you serious?" the exact quote was "LGB Is a company in germany who manufactures trains to run in the garden. I discovered them in the 80s at a convention and decided to put it in my yard." The radio host responds with "So if I put these trains in my yard, leave them out all year round, they'll still work?" The guest said "Yes." That's awesome. And they were technically speaking about LGB. But further climax to the fact that G-Scale is still growing despite the bad economy.
