Nice work! You have a neat layout; I'll bet your children are delighted with it.

One thing I noticed was the way some of your lights shine through the walls of your passenger cars and buildings. You can stop that by painting the insides black or fitting black construction paper to the insides. Also, things would be a little more in scale if you use HO passenger cars. What you have is designed to run on HO track but it is actually built in a different scale, 1:48. That's called On30 and it means 1:48 scale but narrow gauge track. The result is rolling stock which is smaller than full-gauge O-scale cars but overly large for HO scale (1:87 proportion).

But the main message is Good work and congratulations!!

Nice work. looks good to me. I also run HO and have some On30 to run from time to time.
Picked up a lot of Hawthorne Village On30 stuff from Ebay cheap.

Sam..- Anybody who takes the time and effort to introduce young folks to our hobby deserves our admiration and appreciation. Good luck as you have no idea how (or when) your efforts will bear fruit...but bear fruit they will.
