A website dedicated to preserving the history of the great American Flyer
train displays of the mid 20th century. It features illustrations of the factory
displays sold to dealers and links to the display catalogs sent to dealers. Track
plans for many of the layouts are included in the form of illustrations and a
RRTrack file for use with that software. The website also features photos and
catalog illustrations of the Gilbert Halls of Science and their display
layouts, including the
famous second floor layout. There are also photos not available
anywhere else of large department store layouts.

This website is a family album of photographs of the aftermath
fire and earthquake taken
by my grandfather, Frederick H. Brinckmann (1873-1931). The photos were scanned from
the original 4 x 5 negatives and some of them show incredible detail. I still have
the camera with which they were taken, an Ansco Number 5. |
