Went there when my kids were young, they were in the process of phasing out the "O" scale display and starting the construction of the "HO" setup. Very impressive!

I love the modeled Chicago neighborhoods

I've been to Chicago several times, but always on business. Next time I'm carving out some time to visit this.

You should go. I think the trains run too fast but it is a good source of ideas. Go when is best for you in terms of crowds. I prefer when it’s quieter. Quieter Times. Although the Museum regularly has a lot of sounds, the following times tend to be less busy and generally quieter: February, May, September, and October. Spring Break (March/April), summer (June/July), and the holidays (November/December) are the busiest at Griffin MSI.

Impressive layout I shall visit it when we come over to see a friend of ours. To be honest I do prefer to your little village it is very much alive.

It can get crowded trying going at a less popular time so you can enjoy it without getting all the crowd noise.

Very elaborate but I'm a country boy and would rather be in a small fishing village.

I am like minded I prefer an up close and personal experience of a small Italian fishing village with a cafe and quirky characters.

The train speeds are not to scale though...way too fast.
