Lionel pre-war, Tinplate Marx, Is that Pre-war Standard Gauge stuff? Why are they asking so much money for THAT??!! 50's Mantua with a MU-1! So much stuff to lay your eyes on.

Greetings all. I mistakenly said Roco of Australia instead of Austria. An easy enough mistake in pronunciation, Then I missed it in editing and final proof of the video. Some people have been kind enough to point this mistake out to me......many times. I'm pinning this comment so if others feel the need to point out my mistake, It has been noted. Thanks for watching :-)

Yup. The search is the funnest. Looking at the price tags is the funny part. It's nice having price guides on the Lionel and Marx, gives a guy a heads up on how much you might be getting screwed.

Absolute legend finds!! None of the Antique stores or shops of that flavor around here carry model train stuff. Oh yeah, sure they got toys for toddlers and whatever…but nothing for us wobble pop holder guys! It’s a sad day in Duval County when you want model train stuff and ya gotta drive almost 3 hours away to find anything! We got Model Train show coming this weekend. I’m going to take my two youngest grandkids to it. I’m hoping to score some loco parts and some turn outs, maybe some rolling stock. I’m really excited and my grandkids are too. There’s just nothing better than to bring home what could have been junk and get it running again!!! Sipping vintage tequila is a close second. I’m looking forward to watching your videos on these epic finds!!

[@classicmodeltrains]

Greetings Jeb, Sounds awesome to be attending a train show and having grandkids in tow with you. I agree its a great feeling saving these could be or are "junk" models. I would have to switch out the tequila for a good locally brewed I.P.A. wobble pop, but I feel like we could do a good job of sipping, and swapping stories with each other.

Classic Model is the lovely Charlotte Rampling. Love the antique store crawls. You seldom ever find a good buy in one, but you can learn a lot by seeing and handling these trains up close and personal. I find that the "antique mall" and consignment store type places that rent space to individuals can yield some really good buys, especially if you run across one that's going out of business. Keep up the good work!

Those extruded aluminium passenger car coaches are the cat's meow. Hahahaha 🚂

Hi Ron, KMT was Kris Model Trains. They also made O scale. I have some of their circus cars. They made some pretty good trains. I have the same prewar 1668 gunmetal loco and tender, made 1937-41, Love it. That Marx M-10000 was really overpriced. It started out as a clockwork.

[@classicmodeltrains]

I read about Kris model trains. Then I've been told KMT is a Japanese import. Gunna have to do some research. Yeah I figured the M10K was a clockwork. If it was $75-$100 I probably would score it just because it's an old classic :-)

[@johnandrus3901]

@@classicmodeltrains The original KMT trains were made from AMT tooling. AMT sold out to Kusan, who continued to produce the AMT line. They ended up selling to a man named Andy Kriswalus, who sold them under the KMT moniker. He ended up selling the tooling to Williams. Williams later sold some of the tooling to K-Line. Under Kriswalus, they only made rolling stock, no locomotives. I wonder if your set was offered for sale by KMT, using another manufacturer for the locomotives, or maybe licensed to another company to produce, using KMT passenger cars. Good finds and an excellent video.

Really nice equipment you scored. I was fortunate to go to the Amherst Model RR Society show last weekend with a specific N-scale list in mind. Imagine my luck when with a little time and effort in a stack of bins and 40 bucks each. I found first an A unit, and after a bit the B unit of Life-Like Canadian National C-Liners! Look almost never run and tested smooth as silk, although I had to clean them up before too much dried-up grease worked in. And of course, that's not all I got at the show.

[@regisbraga3833]

Some very nice acquisitions Ron! Congratulations! I really liked the Atlas sets, mainly due to the C-liner 20-5. Although ATSF never had it, the warbonnet scheme looks terrific in that little beauty (I’m not referring to the gorgeous Charlotte Rampling). And what about the donations? Splendid! The Tyco set is cool, very cool (loved the passenger cars). The Japanese KuMaTa (KTM) is absolutely fantastic (although the F7A probably will sound like a coffee grinder…). Great video my friend!

[@classicmodeltrains]

Saudações meu amigo! Yes that C-liner is a very different style. You were the first one to point that out a few weeks ago. I will have to include why that particular model of C-liner was made in the restoration video of that Atlas set. I was hoping since you mentioned that KMT was a Japanese production it would be very quiet with helical cut brass gears. I know you know you stuff, so I am pre-warned it will be a bit noisy. Great Job on the "Classic Model" Thank you once again for all your kind words and knowledge.

[@muir8009]

Awesome channel, really fun to watch. I think almost any price you paid for the 1688 torpedo was a good deal: your sheer enthusiasm when you got it home likely worth whatever you paid for it. Very handsome loco, and of course unlike a modern made version, that lionel torpedo when made was a model of then cutting edge technology, and real railroad excitement. Just like the M10000 streamliner. They're a snapshot of their time in history, and you get to play with them as well. Believe it or not: those latch couplers on the torpedo were advertised as being automatic... Standard gauge is a good size isn't it: it has presence. Funnily enough, last time I was in holiday in the US, I was expecting (not for any good reason) I'd be tripping over postwar warbonnet F3's, or turbines at next to nothing prices. The reality was a bit of an eye opener. Bought a big hat instead, and drowned my sorrows spending in cowtown instead... FYI, Kusan model trains for KMT, they picked up the old AMT tooling and sold under KMT. US made...

[@DinsdalePiranha67]

TIL Atlas has been making N-scale stuff for as long as I've been alive! I have two of their locomotives, plus a few pieces of rolling stock - although with recent acquisitions they're now outnumbered by Micro-Trains and Athearn. :) Lots of neat stuff in this vid; particularly liked the Baldwin sharknose near the end. And with you mentioning you're starting over with your layout, well, that's one thing I do like about N scale. While 18" is a pretty tight turn radius in HO, it's more than broad enough to run passenger equipment in N if you choose to do so. OTOH, you can get more detailed with HO, and there's just so much available compared to other scales.

[@classicmodeltrains]

My old radius was 22" and the passenger cars looked silly on them. That 30" should help out a bit. N would be way to small for me to see, but I wished I was younger, I would model it.

I want that locomotive badly!! How much did they want on that one?? Just curious. The model you had displayed was the beautiful Charlotte Rampling from the UK. She was part of the Swinging Sixties Revolution back in the day. Her pictures could sometimes be mistaken for Cheryl Tiegs, but Charlotte was a few years before Cheryl where she was popular in the 60’s, and Cheryl was in the 70’s.

Some interesting stuff, but the prices at the antique stores are quite high. This is the reason why don't make too many purchases at those stores, but I still look and hope for a good deal. Also, I like the KTM trainset along with the Tyco Shark streamliner set. In my collection, I have both A and B units in the Tyco/Mantua Sharks (A unit is powered and B unit is a dummy) along with various Mantua aluminum passenger cars. On a final note, Roco was made in Austria (locate in Europe), not Australia. It's easy to get the two counties confused at a quick glance of the writing.

I see what’s going on now. In this video I never made reference to eBay selling. The next video, where I’m holding a chainsaw in the thumbnail and am taking apart and redoing the layout, That’s the video that has the link to the eBay seller classicmodeltrains. Very first comment. I’m sorry about the confusion.

Ron, everything is over priced. Everything. Negotiate, start at 50%, half the price... then 10% more, if so, then stop. No deal... walk away.

[@classicmodeltrains]

Yup. it never hurts to haggle on price. All they can do is say no.

Use this link Walter www.ebay.com/usr/classicmodeltrains

[@genemanno1533]

Way….way over priced. Must not want to sell anything. Collector prices don’t entice the general population or shopper to buy.

[@classicmodeltrains]

Yup. But the sellers are always hoping for that one feller who don't know any better.

[@4everdc302]

A good haul for sure, Ron👌Sometimes the prices put on stuff at antique malls will amaze ya😳& it never sells.🚂🇨🇦🇺🇲🚃🙋

[@classicmodeltrains]

I was surprised the store owner was able to haggle a bit on "renter's space" stuff. Landed 2 sales that would never have happened.
