As the twentieth century turned to the twenty-first, there was a
civil war raging in the toy train hobby between those who ran
and/or collected O-gauge toy trains. The icon of the hobby, Lionel
LLC, was being challenged by an upstart company, Mike's Train House
(MTH), for the minds, hearts and pocketbooks of those in the hobby
or just beginning in it. This was a war being fought by more
disinformation, innuendo, or out-right lies than either of the 2000
or 2004 political campaigns. The skirmishes and battles of this war
would be fought out in some of the darnedest places and in the
strangest of ways.
The people of Palatine County and Snyder's Corners are back,
this time it is those on the other side of the tracks. When Bill
and Amy Weaver inherit a rare, one-of-a-kind toy train locomotive
they are targeted by two of Snyder's Corners' wealthy collectors
who will do anything, legal or otherwise, to obtain this valuable
addition to their collection. If they can't buy it then maybe they
will have to kill for it.
Railroad (Double) Crossing is an inside look at the toy train
hobby and the collectors who make up a large group of those
involved in it. If you thought toy trains were just kid's toys,
think again.
