At the time this film was made there were still men manning the level crossing gates in America. You see the man ‘operating’ the gates on the layout. In Russia they had women operating gates on level crossings in 1992 when I saw them running them

Wow,Very Nice😊 Fond Memories !😊

Fond Memories, 😊 Thanks for Sharing 😊 !

When will MTH make GE models sound like GE's ?

That car at 1:15 almost got CREAMED! 😂

It should be Canadian National on that locomotive.

Harvard Business School grads sent those jobs and factory to China. Thanks Harvard Business School Grads.

Another beautiful layout TOO BAD IT 3 RAIL.

The whistle sounds more like the T-Rex in the first Jurassic Park movie than the real 611 J! (I heard it right after 611 was restored in 2015.) Otherwise I like the model. Thanks.

I have every one of tese trucks and i just ordered the 3 way plug for mensrds plug n play accessories

Where would you find the lock on section track. I found track in my town but no way to connect power supply. I looked on williams site and they only have reg track. Thanks

Can't escape the Cleveland browns jokes! Trade Baker Mayfield and hire a sex offender,the curse continues.

I built a Carrera go plus 1/43 scale highway in my 49 foot Lionel fastrack and 027 Track.I have a Carrera go pickup Truck that runs very well and powerful it pulled two pounds of rolling stock and a Lionel Auto rack.Are those EZ street trucks powerful ? And can you haul anything in Trunk?

Real nice videos.

I have recently acquired the same engine from a garage sale! It had an old D battery that had been corroding for the past 25 years in it. I was able to salvage it though and have removed all corrosion. After I cleaned up the wheels and contact spots, re-greased and lubricated everything I was able to get it moving quite well around the tracks. I couldn’t believe it was actually still working. I am very new to this though and was wondering if the loud buzzing is normal for it. I also have noticed that the horn relay makes a loud buzzing noise when the train is in gear and brings the train to a halt, is this normal?

I want ro swap shells on my AF SD70 ace and need more info, I've taken out all the pertinent body mounting screws and the front of the engine is still being held by some screws that I don't see.

My guess is this is from the early 1950s but maybe earlier. My Dad started building a large Lionel layout in our basement in 1958. I recognize some of the accessories. It was three levels and he painted cement for the mountain effect. We had a 1960 Santa Fe passenger set and there was a Lionel steam locomtive with freight cars along with a running maintenance car. The layout came down when I started college in 1971. Must have rubbed off on me years later not to be a model railroader but from taking weekend to weekend trips on AMTRAK to see The West. Thanks for this video on KZbin. Also great memories of seeing layouts at department stores.

How long does the water last?

Do you think maybe you could do a story on the two dome tank car and Lionel made two styles of this tank car my favorite was the Sunoco and the other one was rocket fuel....

So sad that the "real" 156 is now sidelined on a dead track in Beech Grove (April 2024) and looking like its insides have been gutted judging by its removed roof hatches. It spent years showing up all over the country as Amtrak's goodwill ambassador for the 40th. And here I am trying to track down one of these beauties some 14 years after this review. Wish me luck.

I recently began wondering how Lionels naming system for its transformers works. I assume the L in ZW-L stands for Legacy, but that's all I can make sense of.

0:55 I love how they created a special gadget to run the semaphore, where they just slide it in, press, a button and test it

Thank you for this great video which brings back memories of the Lionel museum in Sarasota (Florida), sadly now closed for quite some time. What is this introduction music you play please?

looks cool

Nice to see them in my home Railroads old paint scheme

Is this the new Lionel catalog?

It's cool to see those cars and milk barrels brand new and shiny

You might have mentioned which accessories can be activated by an insulated track section. Not all your viewers may be aware how handy it is to use these in lieu of pressure contractors.

Unfortunately. Williams is GONE and their loco tooling will ROT. These will NEVER be made again. R.I.P. Williams!

Do they still produce these locomotives

This is a great review. I have a 9' x 8' layout that is a loop with a spur line, using an MTH Z4000 transformer, and operating with Lionel Cab1. Most of my engines I own are Lionel, but I do have 4 MTH engines. I was at Nicholas Smith trains the other day and saw the PRR version in person and must say it is a very nice-looking engine. Watching the review, these are very impressive, especially for the price. I plan on getting a few of these in the future which is now pushing me to get set up so I can operate DCS. I just need to figure out what I have to purchase to run DCS.

How do lionel trains change direction is it by changing polarity or does it have a reverse motor

Is there a way to run it silent without the chugging sound?

Thanks for everybody to get this video up to 50 likes

I HAVE A 6464-150 TYPE2-A GROUP-3-ROYAL BLUE, HAVE YOU SEEN ANY CARS LIKE THIS.

How much does it cost?

I hope that's not made in China...

NS heritage units are SD70ACEs not SD90s

Great video thank you

Cool

You don’t have to buy smoke fluid!!! They are not capitalizing on a whole new revenue stream😏.

Looks nice!

That thing jumps a little too much on switches... I'd be afraid of it ending up on the floor!

I like that but have no room really. 😢

I have Berwyn Toys and Trains custom run VO1000 in the EJ&E scheme.

Cool
