Do You Have Your First Set Of Trains ?

Yep sure do.

Yes, my 1955, Lionel Set #1527. It will be running next week on the Christmas layout setup. I wish I had the original boxes for it, as that would be kind of neat.

No. It was an S gauge, American Flyer steam engine set. Heck, I don't even have my 2nd set, a Lionel 027 Northern Pacific GP9 set with Super O track. 

Yes , I do...set 2227w  from the 1954 catalog.

No.

Still have my Marx tin plate and the Texas Special Alco. Usually run them some on my Christmas layout.

Yes ,a scout set led by a 1061 engine and 3 cars. Runs great !

Yes ,A 1950 scout set ,engine # 1101 & it still runs as good as always !!!!!!!!

Yep.

Sure do.  1951 Lionel 2026 and the four freight cars it came with.  And I still run it at Christmastime.

The boxes aren't in the best of condition any more, but I do still have them.

No, I do not (Marx & Lionel), but like many on this forum, I have more than made up for my flawed youthful thinking.

Nope.  Sold it when I was in 7th grade so that I could buy some Athearn HO blue box kits.

No, I had to save money to buy them when I was about 12.  It was an inexpensive Tyco HO set.  I packed them up when I moved away after college, and a few years later found the plastic was heat damaged, so I threw them out.

Unfortunately not. My parents put it in the basement when I joined the military. The basement had severe moisture problems and when I returned from Okinawa, I found the engine completely rusted and there was no saving it. I tinkered with HO and N scale for a few years, but always wanted another O scale train. Now I have 2, but am having difficulty getting a layout built, life keeps getting in the way. I have the design, but can't seem to find the energy what with vertigo, a cold and now a persistent ear infection. Oh well, I'll get to it sooner or later, I have faith.

Yes. A Lionel(MPC) Wabash Cannonball set that I received for Christmas in 1982. My Dad still has his Lionel Scout set that he got for Christmas in 1949. The funny thing is that both trains have the same 2-4-2 steam locomotive. Dad's loco runs better than mine even though it's 30 years older. Just goes to show the quality of postwar Lionel trains.

Have my original Lionel Standard gauge, still runs, and the replacement engine in O gauge for my Scout first set plus one flat car. My nephew has the rest of the Scout set.

Still have it.  2037 engine and  4 cars .  Still runs and looks great after sooo long...

Yes and no. I do have the first set I owned.   It's just not the one that was mine. I got rid of it when I got older and just had to repurchase it a few years ago.   For the memories and nostalgia.  It just so happens it's the same set above in Jeffpo's set above...   A Lionel O27 Southern!

Yep! Nice 027 freight set pulled by a 2035. Still a great runner.
