Greetings tinplaters

 

Now that you've all learned about Kibri take a look at the modification I made on my  layout.  I moved the Lionel 45N and Highway Flashers and put the Kibri 52-4 in its place.  So I now have 3 larger Kibri stations--the 52-15, 52-3 and 52-4 on the layout.  The KBN also got moved into the corner.  NO MORE ROOM!!! As a bonus. Couple of shots of the Kibri scale I acquired from Ebay ex-Phil Weiss auction.

Great stuff Lew! Your Kibri and other German items are so unique and cool to see.

Those Merkur coaches are quite NICE! Having just gotten back into European LGB models, I am also partial to Czech-produced UK equipment! That Corgi BL loco is also a jewel! THANKS, as always, for sharing! Hope all is well in the low country! ☺

Two Marx 897 electric locomotives I recently acquired.

JOE: VERY NICE MARX!  ☺

Sorry...Hope you guys never get tired of my workbench layout! 

Tom

well John Boy maybe you need to step away from the type writer and all those fabulous switcher articles and work on a layout so those Prewar beauties can stretch their legs!

What is this thing you call a typewriter??? 

Tom

Hey Dave,

  I liked the 2 boxcars you showed, the State Of Maine (B&A) and PRR. Are they both original Marx products? 

 Tom 

original as is made by Marx.....with four wheels. 

field modified by me with Marx 3/16 trucks.

Dave,

  Very nice. Thanks for posting additional pictures.

Tom 

Scott, that's a great looking set.

Bob Carlson came by today and we got all 4 lines running with 5 trains running on the new layout. This is my first time using only the iPhone software to create the video:

Jeff what are the buildings in the background. There is a clocktower and peaked building next to it?.
