Visited Min-Tour during the mid-50s when I was much younger. It was, at least to me then, a huge S-gauge AF layout. I guess it was open into the early 60's. Wanted to visit as much as my father would tolerate to take me there.

I'd like to know if anyone has pictures and is willing to share. Unfortunately, I don't have any. Anything would be greatly appreciated.

I lived with my Aunt and Uncle in Hatboro Pennsylvania at that time. I remember a large AF layout and remember it was near a large long building that housed an Auction. I remember the auction as a giant flee market with some sort of livestock auction in the rear. I do remember the layout was a very short drive from that auction. Your post brings back great memories. On Saturday with my Uncle, we would watch model trains then go watch real GG-1's. After that go to the auction.
