  • After my Thank You Video back in May 2024 the Doctors said my heart is strong enough for the Aortic Valve replacement Surgery. Recovery has been a long road but I'm getting better every day. On June 13th I was cleared to return to work and get back in the train room. It is really great to be back and I'm feeling much better. I was able to finally clean the layout and get back to my regular schedule. As always Thank you for watching.! Mark

    • @markslioneltrains
      @markslioneltrains  3 месяца назад

      Thanks Cesar you are welcome.!😊 I was just looking at the price these days and at over $400.00 it's hard to say? If you have hard to get to parts of your layout like I do then yes it is worth the money. I have had mine for a few years and when I purchased it they were around $300.00. It is fun running trains with it instead of cleaning the track with paper towels or shop rags.🤷

    Glad to see you back, so sorry to hear about your heart problems. Good thing your on the mend. Well we are getting older and things do change. I'm having trouble walking and keeping my balance mostly from the time I spent in the military. Also age has something to do with it.
    But do what I do and listen to the doctors. Things are going ok but I just have to be careful. But that does not stop me from enjoying trains and life in general. Stay well my friend.
    Btw I just tore down about a 3rd of my layout and redoing it. I like to change it up every now and then.
    Btw Menards has not released anything in 6 weeks but something will be coming soon according to bob.

    • @markslioneltrains
      @markslioneltrains  3 месяца назад

      Thanks David 😊 The Doctors say I should be feeling more like myself in about two more weeks or so. Very glad I found out about the problem before I had a heart attack though. I had a lot of blockage in the defective valve so very glad they replaced it. No fun getting old but yes the trains do help. Glad to hear you’re working on keeping the layout fresh. Really makes a difference for sure. Be careful and take care of yourself as well and keep your feet on the ground.! I have so much Menards stuff I don’t have room for I’m kind of glad they haven’t released anything new in a while.!😊

    Welcome back. It's good to see yo feeling up to doing the work necessary to be ale to play with your trains.
    My layout is in a room 88 inches square to it has to go to all the walls. I am painting scenes on the walls to make the layout seem larger. I operate it from an opening at the center near the back wall to I can reach both back corners and most of three walls. I can access the other corners and parts of the walls from the area inside the door and a sliding window which gives me access to the other corner.
