Lionel 2343 ABA Santa Fe Diesel Set With 2500 Series Aluminum Passenger Car Consist. The train can be seen traveling on two different lay outs along with testing out it's newly functioning original horn. Horn was cleaned and adjusted and is working for the first time in probably 20 or 30 years. The Santa Fe set is all original except for two reproduction plastic port hole windows. This is the 1950-52 dual motor 2343 diesel. It's still a very good puller as you can see. The 2500 series passenger cars are also all original. Several have the hex rivets, some have adhesive name plates as well as the round rivet type. They are not from the same original set but all are in excellent condition.

Take a ride with the Pocono Trainman on the large layout. No music, no talking, just a nice train ride through small towns, past farms, factories, businesses, train yards and through tunnels. See the scenery from a camera mounted on the train and from different locations on the layout. Part 2 will feature running on my smaller layout. The locomotive featured here is a Williams Northern Pacific pulling a few National Guard military cars left on from Memorial Day.

Lionel O gauge 1924-32 locomotive No. 254​, with two 1915-24 No. 610​ Pullman and a 512 Observation car. Locomotive is equipped with a manual reverse switch, front and rear lamps and a bell (later switched to a pantograph). The passenger cars are illuminated. The color you see is called Mojave. There is a known defect concerning the passenger cars in that the pickup roller were too short to contact the track. This original set still retains it's original rollers which were never upgraded to the larger size. Latch couplers are used to hold everything together. Hope you enjoy the video and please leave a Plus+ and a Rumble or comment.

Here is my 1940 prewar set, the 4004 with the lesser known 553 Streamline Torpedo style locomotive. Poor cousin to the 556 Royal Blue, it's a plain Jane gunmetal grey loco and tender along with it's original set cars. The person I purchased it from told me he put it in his attic in 1955 and just found it while cleaning it out. It's it excellent condition with headlight and 3 step reverse unit. Runs very good, just needed a little cleaning and lube. Came with the plain silver with blue base 480 tank car which I think is fairly scarce. The 478 in the video is not the one that came with the set, I didn't want to even risk scratching that one it's so pristine, anyway enjoy the video. The plus + sign equals a LIKE here in Rumble.

Lionel Electro-Motive Division NW2 Switcher traveling around my layout. Lot's of buildings and scenery to view on this model train layout.

In 1930, General Motors purchased Electro-Motive Company and the Winton Engine Co. and in 1941 expanded EMC's realm to locomotive engine manufacturing as Electro-Motive Division (EMD)."

Lionel 6-8759 Erie Lackawanna GP-9 Diesel running on my layout with a very appropriate consist. This locomotive was manufactured from 1977 through 1979. Three position reverse unit, with light and traction tires. Magnetraction was not used on this model. A diesel horn was also left out confirming this was the economy model. It runs well forward and reverse and can pull a decent consist. All considered I'm pretty happy with this engine. The plus + sign equals a LIKE here in Rumble. A comment is also a Rumble.

This Lionel 4121 Delaware & Hudson video demonstrates how to operate the features of the Lionel LionChief Plus running with remote, phone app and traditional transformer. Check out activating the horn, bell, crew talk, electro-coupler, fan smoke and lighting features. Locomotive start up and shut down procedures are discussed along with proper switch settings. This video has a long introduction into each of the features available, if you don't want to listen to that you can jump to about the eight minute mark to get right into the demonstration and operation of all of the features and the running of the locomotive. I noticed I made an error in explaining the sound button. You can turn off the motor sound without killing the horn, bell and crew talk.

Lionel #6110 Columbia Scout Cast Metal Locomotive with Magnetraction and unique smoke unit. Note the hole in the boiler front needed to push the smoke out of the chamber. As far as I know this is the only locomotive Lionel made with this type of smoke unit. No headlight was used in this locomotive due to the unique design of the smoke unit.
