Enablers, all of you!! After much deliberation, decided to get the Lionel Irvington Factory.

Sure did! The final car of Atlas' Zephyr, the Conductor's Dome. It is on the water now.

Not railroad related, but i scored this off ebay for less than 20 bucks with shipping.

It's from the county I was born in, for the timeframe I was born (at the end of November, 1969).

On my way home from the hospital as an infant, I could have been driven past the very car that had this plate for all I know.

And yes, I know this makes some of you feel old...

payday was yesterday

My husband Tom and I have lived our entire lives in California, so I picked up both the green and the brown repro Lionel CALIFORNIA passenger cars from the State Sets. These will run behind my pink/red 408E.

I love prevailing wage jobs buy toys and still have money in the savings lol. Granted I have not seen most the things I got yet but here is a few items I got. 

MTH LIRR G-5s # 21, MTH G-5s PRR # 5740, MTH FEC BL2 606, MTH Bangor f7 set, MTH sw8 bar 33, Lionel lirr C-420, 206 and LIRR HH-64 1501. Marianne bench work.

I had posted this one pic on the what did you do on the layout page but also decided to post this here seeing it's new. I just got this today from the CTTA, a Canadian club. It is one of their offerings and I like Canadian road names. This is actually the first time I have bought a 36' reefer. Here is a pic..........Paul

From the MTH 2016-1 All four All Door Boxcars.  2 from my LHS Brentwood Antiques and 2 from Mr Muffin. Now I'm looking for the Green Bay & Western?

River City 3 Railers has now upgraded to a brand new 8.5x24' trailer. Just picked it up today. Pretty cool in my book.

MTH GE EVO Hybrid.

Got these on Friday. Had been looking for this Buffalo Creek Graphics Genesee beer three car set for quite awhile. Here is a pic.........Paul

Bought this little conductor guy with his lantern for the layout, his arms swing!  

And this curvaceous new Barclay "chanteuse" (will be repainted as moi), along with five other new Barclay ladies. More gents will be added soon...

Hi all, I am new to this forum and looking forward to learn a lot. Great photos. I recently ordered a Bachmann Thoroughbred and I am waiting for it to arrive

Remember the movie, "Aliens"?
I found a great die-cast version of the APC from that movie at a local comic book store today and couldn't resist. Turns out, it looks almost perfect for O scale. I just took these photos for fun, it's not on the layout now.

It's all right, we're clear! Ripley, you've blown the transaxle, you're just grinding metal! C'mon, ease down! Ease down! Ease down!

AnnetteRatley, welcome to the forum. You will find a good deal of good information on this forum. And if you do not see what information you need just ask the question and you will get an answer..............Paul

I call this  "attic fresh" it looks like the motors have not been touched, still had the original tape to hold the wiring down. Cosmetically the body is rough but thats ok with me I'm the same age. Of course the old Eveready is toast but the e-unit sequences just fine and it runs smooth for being 62 years old. I'm kinda reluctant to clean it up and loose its history.

Franktrain, I had one come through for repair where the battery looked way worse than that and I brought her back to life with a few parts and a little elbow grease

My latest addition: The PRR B-28.  It will be featured in my next upload, Steam Pusher Service

Very nice Peter!!
