Angela’s powerful images are a mixture of Lionel trains, childhood, and the holiday season. This year’s Lionel operating toy train layout in the front window will be even bigger than last year’s display. This layout will feature an Angela Trotta Thomas train consisting of her Lionel engine and boxcars.
