Went back to the estate sale the second day and picked up the passenger cars for half price. Now have a original 1957 set #1586. Oddball set, Lionel finally makes SF freight locos but added passenger cars.
That’s beautiful!
Sinclair- That DDA40X is HUGE!! Wow! I thought for a moment that was a G scale model next to an HO scale! Wow! Beautiful!
Got the new Union Pacific 1943 boxcar with LED lights and the UP 1943 caboose. The colors match well with the engine but my only complaint is the LED lights in the boxcar are not bright like I had anticipated. I am still overall happy with them both.

Good looking Engine!
Added some more Western Maryland to the fleet
MTH Railking with Loco-sounds system.
very nice Bob !! see, now you can get the matching G scale one too...
no one would even notice... 
Excellent addition, Bob!!!!
Great looking stuff guys. Well I got my first steam today. It’s a MTH Rail King I think #1104 UP 4-6-4 sorry but the “Uncle Pete” has to go going to re-do it in New York Central I got a good buy on it even though it was UP
I got a job 2 weeks ago and got my first paycheck yesterday, so I decided to treat myself for working my butt off for those 2 weeks. I bought this off Mario's Trains today. It should be here next week, most likely on Wednesday. Can't wait to try this out on my Legacy engine! I will post a video when I get around to that.
Congratulations Michael!!

Uhhhhhhhh... I personally don't like mentioning where I work in a public online area, since I work for a small company. But I'm working as an Electrical technician/assembler.
Keep in mind that I spent the course of 6 months applying to any job that fit my experience, before I got accepted to work with the company I am currently working with. So your experience with finding a job might be different from mine. Just do what I did and you will eventually get one.

Beautiful cars, but LED lights in the boxcar?

The stars in the American flag have LED lights that glow. The car gets power from the track.
Just bought a Lionel NYC Hotbox Reefer set for a great deal on the for sale forum! Unopened with no signs of wear and tear before I tested these on the layout!
I just took delivery of this from da bay!
made from cardboard, balsa wood, and 3d paper. Only the Monitor windows are from plastic Korber castings.

NS1975, I'm impressed!
Quiver me liver!
I saw a yard sale while walking my dog, and I found this for $2!
On the way home, I realized that it has two secret compartments, each with treasure inside.
When I got home, I discovered that it takes two AA batteries... For what?.
.
..I installed the batteries, and it played a jaunty pirate's tune.
Needs clean-up and some touch-up paint, as well as some more action figures.
Now I can almost run some trains!
my cw 80 won’t work with my new tiu, but this will work for my track power up. Now I need to find a z500 for my tiu power up.
