Model trains back on track
NEW YORK - Sales of model trains are picking up steam again thanks to deals linking them to the "Harry Potter" and "The Polar Express" movies, along with a new approach to marketing the old-fashioned toys. Lionel, one of the big names in model trains since the 1950s,has watched as its business had to focus less on selling toys to kids than serving an older but much smaller hobbyist market.Folk-rock singer Neil Young, 61,is so passionate about trains that he bought a fifth of the company in 1995.
