Reply to "MPC Era Lionel Trains?"

TINPLATE ART, I agree - great thread.  MPC brought some great color to the hobby too.  My favorites were the Blue Comet and the Chessie Steam Special.  They had the ‘Mighty Sound of Steam’ and the Chessie Berk introduced an electronic whistle. Archaic by today’s standards, but compared to the traditional whistling tenders of the post war era, my Dad, brothers and I thought it was great.  So much so, my Dad added a whistle to the Blue Comet as well.  Here is a clip from Christmas last year with both train sets racing around the tree with the whistles blaring away
