That's a lot like the train I rode to Hofstra in the 70s! I think, technically, it's a different Motorcar, it still looks the same.

This is a sweet set Brooklyn. This is the older set, right, and not the LionChief one? Runs with transformer? From what I hear it is more robust than the newer LIRR sets. Very cool.

BTW, a tip: if you shoot phone video with the phone turned sideways we get a better view of the train :-)

Thanks! Yes this is the older one from 2009. There is no Bluetooth, it runs off the transformer. Also yes it is bigger than the newer sets. Thank you for the tip on the video, I’ll do that moving forward. I want to try to record good quality videos.
