The "Good Old Days" of Model Railroading

[Charlie B]

The "Good Old Days" of model railroading? A piece of scrap plywood, propped up on an old table. Grey hand painted roads, populated with Matchbox and Tootsie toy cars and trucks. Old Tyco locomotives intermixed with some AHM, and rolling stock where road names and numbers didn't matter, even if two were the same. Buildings straight from the box with no weathering or paint, just plopped down on Life-Like Grass mats next to bottle brush pine trees. Thirty-six years ago on my very first layout. Are they the "Good Old Days", of model railroading, or just a great memory from the past.
