As we keep trying to come up with new products for garden railroads, we thought…how can we personalize a layout? No matter what scale you have or what kind of trains you run, no matter if you have an overhead or a portable system, outside on the ground or inside on benchwork. Every Layout has its own unique name. Do you guys have a Sign for your layout with your name? We do…and we love it: Here it is… Here are some examples of what we have created for some of our friends.

We had a ~4-foot banner made up with the Tortoise and Lizard Bash RR logo put on it. This is displayed on the fence when you enter the yard. We also had several T-shirts made up with the logo that we wear during open houses and to train events.

I will definitely consider your products for my own layout at some point. I still have one structure I have been meaning to order from you, but the economy has not been too cooperative. Nevertheless someday . . .

Gee, talk about a lonely guy! it has its upsides too. i can modell as sloppy as i want, it still is the best layout, my visitors ever see! irondan, if i would not fear the postage costs, i sure would be interested in a sign of this kind.
