The Niagara is a classic. Opinion question: Wonder how many like the way Lionel painted the Vision Line Niagara?

Personally I like the looks of the Century Club Niagara, which is how they advertised the Vision Niagara in the catalog.

Vision Line Niagara

It's a beauty for sure. On one of my last visits to Marty Fitzhenry's home, he had his grey Vision Line Niagara running on the layout and it was impressive for sure.

Of all the O-Scale 3-rail Niagaras, my favorite is my brass Crown Edition model made by Williams/Samhongsa. I know the shiny finish isn't prototypical, but I like it, and for sentimental reasons, the one I have was my Dad's, so nothing will replace it; and, now that Gunrunnerjohn has converted mine to DCS, it's a real joy to run and always a hit with visitors.

Here are 2 more: my MTH Dreyfus Hudson pulling my K-Line 20th Century Limited cars, and my Lionel 90th Anniversary Hudson pulling my K-Line "28th Anniversary" NYC heavyweights.
