Location Update
As
of this update the 'Wood Location' has been ruled out
due to impending road construction that will block the
entrance to the location. This would mean that the
situation for a couple of years would be similar to that
of the BETA test location. So that is not acceptable.
Since then we have found another location that is around
50,000sf. We are in negotiations for this space as well
as the 'Gold Location' as of this update. The issue at
hand is there is competition for these locations from a
large corporations. So we need to get funded no later
than September 2022 so we can compete. Also, we
are looking at 2 additional smaller locations next week as well as
a back up to the ones we want.
Donations and Investment have slowed due to the surging
gas prices and overall terrible cost of living. Despite
this, donations and investments are still coming in to
the
MWOT™
Project. We are expecting a very large investments in
September from one if not two individuals. This will
allow the MWOT™
Project to sign the lease in September so we can start
construction shortly there after if not before.
Keep in mind that the MWOT™
Project should be very successful in both a floundering
economy and the superior red hot favorable economy. The
reason is the price point and bang for the buck the
visitors get so they will spend their available dollars
at the MWOT™.
The quality of the project that will we offer will be a
draw for locals as well as regional visitors if gas
prices and the cost of living remain high into 2023 and
2024. The MWOT™
Project will be an excellent entertainment value
for the price and the location we choose.
Regardless of the location picked the station track area
of the City of Greenburg™
will remain the same size as well as the Christmas Model
Train Display™.
With that in mind, over the next 60 days planning and
construction will begin. First on the station and then
the Christmas Display.
So,
if you live in the Greenville, SC we will be needing
some daytime help to start the display construction.

Construction To Start
It is planned that the
MWOT™
Project and Blue Ridge Hobbies™
will sharing space again for a short period for some possible meetings and
to start building sections of either Phase I of the
Miniature World of Trains™
or the Christmas Model Train Display™ next
month!
Help From The Model Railroad Press?
As of email we have had zero assistance from the model
railroad media after we have attempted to get two press
releases about the project sent in November and April
mentioned anywhere.
While the project has spent money with ads in the NMRA
Magazine, Model Railroader and Classic Toy Trains,
they have refused to mention the Miniature World of
Trains™
even in passing. You wuld think that they would want to
help promote a big model railroading project like ours
but they have been silent, yet they will take our money
for advertising with them.
We have planned to announce the project locally a couple
of times but the timing and news of the day have not
timed out well.
Toronto Here We Come
CEO
Kelly Orr will be in Toronto for business with one of
his clients. The plan is that he will be visiting Little
Canada.
Little Canada is another very detailed large model train
display depicting specific areas in Canada. Kelly will
be trying to meet with the CEO and Founder to compare
operational philosophy's between what they are doing and
what we are planning.

(Model Railroad Hobbyist) email newsletter starting with
the next available addition.
Also, new 30 minute audio sample of sounds from the main

CEO
Kelly Orr approved fundraising advertising for the Model
Railroading and Classic Toy Trains for the end of April
and beginning of May 2022. Also, a half page color
display ad for the NMRA Magazine.
03/31/22
Funding push will be starting this April to reach some
120,000 model railroaders via advertisements in both the
Model Railroader and Classic Toy Trains magazine news
letters followed by display ads in the August issue of
each of these magazines and a display ad in the July
NMRA magazine as well.
The ads will introduce the Lilliput LLC™
and the Miniature World of Trains™
to people that are not aware of the venue as a for
profit. Also that we are looking to raise at least $800k
to $1.5M from investors, donors and volunteers to help
secure the venue and build Phase I for a late 2023
opening.
02/28/22
At this point our main funding source for the bulk of
the $800K has pushed the funding date out until the end
of the 3rd quarter of 2022. This effectively
pushes the Christmas Model
Train Display™
back to a 2023 opening
with a possible MWOT™
Phase I opening by the end of the 3rd quarter of 2023.
01/13/22
As
of this update over $130,000 has been invested in
Lilliput LLC™.
We still need at least another $800K invested to get the
Christmas Model
Train Display™
and start building Phase I of the Miniature World of
Trains™
display.
