We are all different! And I have seen some amazing Fastrack layouts!! Sean's trains for one. BTW I watched your video on FB last night! Some good looking Southern equipment rolling around! Does your KONWAY sign not light up?? And does that Southern TOFC have any dates on it that might indicate its era?

Thanks, funny the other silver trailer cars have dates 55-56. There Lionel PS-4 cars. I feel these cars where used mid 50s to late 60s . In the 70s you see the double trailer flats. Trains or classic trains did an article about this in the last year actually.
The Konway sign is not lighted.
Kon yeah I went over one at the hobby shop.. kind of in a hurry... and didn't see a date on it. So the other cars just like that say 55-56 on them? Do they also have TTX and Trailer TT Train on them?
Oh and my brother is an electrician. I have been wiring layouts (HO) since the mid 70's. And if you check out Sean's trains you will see he is no slouch in wiring at all! LOL I will give you one though. They put that Fastrack in the starter kits. You get a couple then you add to it. Before you know it.... You have a Fastrack layout! If I knew what I know now before I bought the first piece of Fastrack I would have looked into Gargraves with Ross turnouts. BUT nobody in my area carries GG or Ross. One place does carry Fastrack and the other doesn't carry any O stuff.

They Vary actually on the road names . The PRR has PRR markings. All the build dates are between 1955-1956 or **** close to it. All really nice Lionel cars though.
