Model train evokes memories on the rails

As young and old alike entered the activity room at Hundred Palms of Tucson assisted-living home on Saturday, the reaction was the same. Gasps of "wow" or "amazing" were heard, followed by stories of husbands or wives working on the rails or of trips taken long ago on trains. Visitors and residents were drawn to the details put into the 30-foot-by-8-foot Model N series railroad. The setup includes miniature houses, cars, people and even a drive-in movie theater.
