LYNNWOOD - Jim Noonan filled a garage-size building in back of his suburban
rambler with a masterpiece in miniature.Over 15 years, he re-created
Colorado's famed Rio Grande Southern railroad, a favorite of model train
hobbyists. --
Noonan died in 2006, at the age of 80. Often, model train layouts get thrown
out after their creator goes to the grave. --
A 2004 story in Railroad Model Craftsman magazine features Noonan's
19-by-23-foot layout and describes how he got early exposure to model
railways through a club.--
"It's just too cool to have it end up in the garbage can," Berger said."Our
real goal is to save it."They've received inquiries from museums, Berger
said, but nothing solid.Moving the setup poses challenges.--
