Once the word got around about the facelift project that Harry did for my GCT, the orders kept flowing in as others wanted the same attention given to their original Lionel model. Harry has done several upgrades since. Here's the latest one he is working on for a client in Arkansas.

Very nice BRIAN, he is probably getting swamped right now with work. But for him that’s a good thing.

Hope he's not to busy, have an engine that I would like weathered. He's done one already, very satisfied. I like my steam engines slightly weathered.

Brian, thanks for showing us some more of Harry's work. It's always impressive.

Really fun for me to see others have their Lionel GCT upgraded. Knowing how they will turn out and the impact they have on the hobbyist and their visitors to the layouts, they will also be blown away. One of the first thing that our visitors mention when they first enter the trian room is the beautiful model of the GCT.
When I first received the GCT after a long delay in production, I thought to myself, how could this be any better. I was wrong thanks to HH.
Best train accessory I have EVER owned.

Brian that shot is amazing! Do you have any pictures of construction on that area?

Brian, pictures of the city side of your layout always amazes me. At a glance, I would swear (not out loud though as Santa is watching) that I am looking at the real city itself. Incredible detail!

Here is the area before the base was installed and then adding the base unit.

Brian, if I was a miniature figurine or better yet I was "Gumby", I would pick your layout to live in! AWESOME photos of GCT and its base.

This is just an amazing center show piece. Thanks for sharing.

I have never seen such a marvelous layout focal point than Brian's GCT. Although I have not seen it installed in person, I take solace in the fact I inspected it VERY closely at York before it was delivered. HH does great work indeed!

Thanks, Trey. Harry is very proud of this version of the GCT as well he should be.

I saw Harry's "upgraded GCT" at York a few shows ago before it made its way back home to Brian's layout... and I was blown away by the various improvements. Lots of talent to make that all happen. The attention to extra details is impeccable!
