@BlueComet400 posted:A while back, I found 2 unpainted K-Line heavyweight passenger cars, a Pullman and a diner. I sent the bodies to Christine Braden, and she painted/lettered them to match the K-Line NYC "28th Anniversary" cars. Here's the finished product (the bottom 2 cars); I think the cars came out very well.
Great paint job done by Christine, she is the best!!
Bought my son a WBB O27 Hudson for his birthday!
How do I get adopted
I usually don't post prices Ive paid, but I got this pair of older Legacy GP-7 diesels shipped to my door for $180. Seems to run good during initial testing. I saw it pop up on ebay as a buy it now listing and I couldn't pass it up.
Love the graphics
@WesternPacific2217 posted:Chris, I really like those two SP SD45T-2, nice acquisition! Please post a photo of the SP FM Train-master when you get it. I have fond memories of SP FM's pulling the San Francisco to San Jose commuter trains when I was very young!!
It was delivered today, Very nice looking locomotive.

Thanks Chris for posting that! Wow, that's the best looking O scale version of a FM Trainmaster I've seen so far! Super detailed! Congrats on that purchase!
Weill I am a unabashed tank car collector and I saw this one on e-bay as a Buy It Now and could not resist. Its a Lionel 2 Dome # 36117 of more or less traditional structure, it as a sheet metal platform under the tank and 2 automatic couplers. The trucks are unique they are die cast and have actual spring suspension. It was from the "made in China" era or Lionel (LLC) from 2008. The tank casting is certainly the traditional Lionel 2D casting that we all know and has been used for decades but the color is somewhat unique its a dark somewhat purpleish blue. I had never seen this color used before. The price was more than reasonable at $28 all in including tax and shipping. So here she is:
Best wishes

Just landed from Legacy Station. SD70ACE decked out in Space Force colors.
Tim Mac, has that Space Force diesel just been released or is that from another production run? Thanks Dave
Great buys everyone!
On Tuesday Menards released their new M&Ms caboose and I’m glad I ordered it because it was sold out by Thursday afternoon. Well it arrived a few hours ago. My Menards candy train is up to date! 😁 Here’s some photos and a video.
You started up my diabetes again

It was a good, and expensive, day at The Train Station in Mountain Lakes, NJ today. 😁
The UP 1988 is a beauty.
A slight paint smudge on the NYSW, but otherwise no issues. Two good deliveries from Lionel.
Wow those are beauts! Looks like they nailed the colors.
New to me from the Bay........Premier PS3 GP40.Here are two double wood sheathed box cars that I ordered from Berwyns about 11 months ago. Since I had a 43 year career in the Bell System; the Western Electric car was a must. The RCA car hit me from my past. As a teenager I was a RCA record club member. I completely forgot the Roadname on the RCA car. It’s the one that’s been attacking my wallet lately; PRSL. I may have to get another one!
Recently via the bay I was lucky to pick up two Lionel 6-16686 bobbing boxcars at great prices. I just converted the first with a "MAD" magazine "SPY" theme. The boys like to create a "BOOM."
Fourth of July every day. Far out

As I mentioned before I am not in this hobby for the investment, I would have to make decals for Ready Kilowatt for that Western Electric Car
