Hi TC (and WS too)- I am sorry for derailing this train but....I haven't been around long enough to read too many of your posts. Could you please explain :headscrat the relations of mid 50's memphis, trains, planes etc. Not trying to pry- but if you could explain your needs and wants it might allow some of the AK members to give you a "bigger picture" :cool: .

Pardon me boy, but is this the Transylvania station? That's EYEgor.

Here's a link to the Chicago Museum of Science & Industry's Zephyr:

One of my all time favorite museums....they also have a Nazi U-Boat and one of the Apollo capsules. When the 747 came out they also had a mockup of the cabin complete with the spiral staircase leading to the upper lounge. And then there's the underground mine and old time main street etc. A must see if you're even in the Windy City.
