Yesterday, one of our modular group members (Bob) brought his childhood train to run. He didn't know any of the details of it's origin except that when he woke up one Christmas morning, it was set up around the Christmas tree.....I thought the basic set look familiar and he acknowledged that some of the rolling stock where later add ons.
Here it is:
...a 2065 Hudson-type steamer.....
Here is the result of my search....1956.....
I love a good "PostWar Mystery"!
