	: [[Winton Brown]] and Larry Barker, two extraordinary live steamers, are augmenting their activities by starting and operating a Kiddie Amusement Park at Danville, California. Winton owns and operates the small merry-go-rounds such as the airplanes and miniature autos, while Larry has transferred his entire live steam railroad, 1-1/2 inch scale, from Portland, Oregon to Dvanville where he will entertain the kids as well as adults on a 1,100 foot track. The best of luck to both of you.		: [[Winton Brown]] and Larry Barker, two extraordinary live steamers, are augmenting their activities by starting and operating a Kiddie Amusement Park at Danville, California.

In the 1960's, if you were building a loco from scratch which wasn't adaptable from a Martin Lewis design the Winton catalog engineering section was considered the bible and many used it to design parts of their locos, especially boilers.
