What Customers Say About Richard Kughn's Train Layouts & Collections:

Kughn's love of all things Lionel. He's the man.

Along come this man, an avid fan of toy trains for a lifetime, who is a millionaire. Reviewing this video remends me of how disappointed I was that Lionel Trains were becoming a thing of the past.they were history.

He brought Lionel to the attention of both runners and collectors. He begins solid manufatcure of existing trains, and then branches out into Lionel of the furure.

Lionel's train manufacture was on a plane of quality and solidity as of the Lionel of the '40s and '50s. This indicates Mr.

I highly recommend this product for every train collector and runner.Ralph M Wetzel3/8/2010
