Great finds! And that EP-5 really does look like it belongs on the head-end of those cars! There's after-market horn and bell units you could install in the EP-5 if you wanted to. I've used Williams by Bachmann soun d units and ERR by 3d Rail units and they're easy installs, although the ERR units are a bit pricy. And right, the Milwaukee Road never used EP-5's, on the New Haven and later Penn Central had them. Thanks for posting!

Very nice! My dad was a Wisconsin native and went to the University of Wisconsin, starting in the Fall of 1930. He rode the Milwaukee Road Hiawatha's on a regular basis. I was lucky enough to see the Little Joe's on the South Shore, before they retired them. That is a real nice train, for sure and it will be nice when you complete the set. MPC really made some nice stuff, for sure. I run post-war and MPC, for the most part, on my layout. My channel is Chooch's Trains. You can check it out, if you wish. Either way, I like your layout and it's enjoyable to watch you run trains. An excellent video, as always.

IF the Lionel car was made in America, it would be well worth $100.00. But it isn't. Lionel and its staff are living off the name and making fortunes for themselves.

Well to be fair the RMT stuff isn’t made here either but it’s priced accordingly

I've been buying RMT products for years, I've got six of their "Beep" diesels and love 'em! My last RMT purchase was the Henning's Trains 85th Anniversary car, top quality and I'm looking forward to the battleship New Jersey cars when they show up.

Congratulations on such a great find! Not just the engine but the display case as well! Well done! (I'm surprised you didn't lean in and inhale deeply when you opened that handsome black box! 🤣) And sure, go ahead and run that 726, that's what it was made for! I had the pleasure of meeting Walt from RMT at the York Train Show and you're 100% correct, a VERY nice man indeed! And he was a bit surprised I remembered him from the Jersey Central Historical Society newsletters from years ago. A fun video, and it was a rush seeing that 726 in action! Thanks for sharing it with us!

Very nice layout, what size is it and what did you use to ballast your track?
@DeerbrookSouthernRR2 ай бұрын
Thank you. The room is very small. About 9x11 I’d say and the layout takes up the entire thing. The track is Lionel tubular track and the ballast is actually unscented kitty litter
@kevinmeyer66772 ай бұрын
@@DeerbrookSouthernRR very cool, I had heard some people used kitty litter, what brand did you use if you can remember and did you use the traditional method of gluing it down?
@DeerbrookSouthernRR2 ай бұрын
@ just regular store brand clay litter. And believe it or not none of the ballast is glued down. It stays in place really nicely even with the vibration from the train

I'm jealous my buddy Visionary Locomotive Works won the Tom Snyder C&O Hudson in the auction earlier this year, but it couldn't have gone to better hands. Check out his video on how he got it and his tribute to both Tom McComas and Tom Snyder.

Lionel should bring manufacturing back to the good old usa
@wayneantoniazzi2706Ай бұрын
They probably could but the question is what are you and others willing to give up to make that happen? To keep the prices reasonable much if not all of the sophisticated electronics people are going ga-ga over would have to be left out. The electronics packages add more to the end cost than most people realise. Being a conventional runner it wouldn't bother me in the least if they were left out but it would bother others. Just saying, you know?
@GuytrainsАй бұрын
Ok good point but all that fancy electronics could be made here. Silicone valley is the place to pick for that and Lionel was a New York based company with many jobs to locals How about the threat we face from china,and the shipping cost and labor in china is not cheap anymore . Lionel is not cheap now wait until the export wars and trade wars begin made in America is my theme. If I was Lionel I would find how they could make there product here and cheaper. Employ Americans and keep everything in house

Got this engine when i was 7yrs old from santa claus! Im 74 now and my grandson has it now, it still runs, and i ran the heck out of it. As a young boy at Christmas time i couldnt wait for the local hardware store to put up the Lionel trains in the window. Alas, times have changed, but Lionel still chugging along!🚂😁👍
