The ongoing parade of incoming Ebay boxes became a handy source of Christmas joy...  My stepdaughter would intercept the mail and wrap the boxes.
I got the jingle on my phone so I knew what had arrived, but I got to puzzle over several packages during the unboxing!

Santa finally made his 2020 delayed delivery. 😀

I've got a delayed gift that we're not sure when it will arrive: a Digitrax Zephyr from my father-in-law that will be used to run the On30 ET&WNC layout that will be built under my HO layout.  The back order is fine, because I haven't started the new layout yet.  I've been too lazy to go to the home center, sort through the warped pieces, buy the best lumber I can live with, and haul it home.   :facepalm:

Why DCC for the big guys?  I assume sound chips?  It seems unlikely that you'll have more than one train to run at a time, given your space constraints...

Sound.  Plus it gives me other programming options, if I have issues with my ESU system being unable to program something.  I have had one or two non-ESU decoders that won’t play nice with my ESU CabControl system.

Didn’t ask for anything train related from Santa this year but I got loaded up on Packers and Clemson swag for the playoffs! (My girlfriend is the best)

I didn't get any Ohio State swag for Christmas, but at one time C&O did serve the campus power plant (via road running over a bridge over the Scioto river up what is now Woody Hayes drive)  :-)
