OK I am going to be a bit unusual today for this post and use some of my non-US trains.
First here is a French Hornby (electric) No 1 loco from the late 40's pulling a consist of Hornby LMS coaches from the 1950's/
Here is a Dressler (Germany) clockwork loco from the 1950's pulling a short consist of HWN (Heinrich Weimer Nuremburg) coaches from about the same time period.
Best Wishes
Don
