Keep ‘em Rolling! New Stuff from Atlas!

[@Ericstrains]

Helpful Hint: Watch the entire video. 😀

[@eottoe2001]

Are you saying there are people who don't?

[@Ericstrains]

eottoe2001 oh yeah. Most don’t.

[@arduous1914]

ericstrains Nooooo!!! Who would do such a thing!😧😔😫

[@TexasRailfan21-RailfanRyan]

Can you do a second video of your MTH Coarse light express?

[@jerzeydolphins]

lol i got the Mrs a New TV for Christmas and this fancy new tv has a option that i am watching a youtube video from my laptop and i just click a icon thats is provided in these options and BOOM ! The Mrs is enjoying Erics Trains ahahahahahha if yall have a tv that allows this, i urge it , its awesome

[@idioticchild3603]

Amazing to see more recognition being made towards our grand old Hoosier line. I love seeing stuff like this as I live right next to a stretch of the former Monon’s second division

[@superwarp12]

I would alternate The diaphragms one long one short one long one short that way you could run on 0-72. Also does the atlas LED lighting mess with the DCS signal?

[@Ericstrains]

Not that I've seen.

[@Elios0000]

was just thinking this same thing

[@arduous1914]

I love when you tubers make little but really funny jokes like that!😂

[@gusshadleythelunaticfromar7125]

Great looking passenger consist Eric, thanks for the review.

[@stephenwhite546]

Monon rail bed is currently a rail to trail now in northern Indiana . Was just on it before watching your new video today . The SouthShore line will actually be revitalizing some of the existing bed from Hammond down to Schereville . Will be seeing trains again on it soon .

[@vincentvanpaepeghem4844]

Great video Eric! Atlas did a great job on those cars! It's amazing how just adding passengers to the cars how it came alive! Thanks for sharing! Have a great and awesome day!

[@cessna54tango]

I have a set of these in Lackawanna and R&N. I run them on 072 with a few O54s in there. I put the long diaphragm on the front and short on the rear. Closed up the gap almost completely and allows it to clear the curves just fine. They really are great cars.

[@FellowManofAggieland]

Cannot wait to see a review of the blue and yellow train shown in the video.

[@bm6chime]

The second I saw M.O.N.O.N coaches, I knew this was gonna be a good video, I was not disappointed

[@TomedysTrains]

That USRA Heavy Mikado from Lionel you have actually is a good choice of a locomotive to pull those Monon passenger cars since the Monon had those locomotives.

[@ecpcharles]

These cars are based off of CNW commuter car prototype. These identical cars were also produced in HO by Rivarossi(all except the observation)

[@highoctanegames]

Atlas makes some beautiful stuff

[@TexasRailfan21-RailfanRyan]

Can you do another video of your corse light express from MTH??

[@TobyPasman]

I second the idea

[@mistermadmachine6311]

👍

[@MattsTrainsTractors]

As soon as I clicked on the video I saw the cat and I got scared lol. Very cool rolling stock! Love the detail

[@Ericstrains]

You’re scared of cats?

[@MattsTrainsTractors]

ericstrains no, it just shocked me how he was on the table lol. I like chessie the cat

[@SouthEastRailfan]

Very cool set Eric. Monon isn’t something I would’ve expected for you to have in your collection but I’m pleasantly surprised. They have a beautiful paint scheme. Really like the Alaska Railroad passenger train you had on the trestle too. Don’t remember if you made a review on those already. Thanks for sharing. -Will

[@mattstrains416]

Those are really nice cars. I might have to get a few for my collection. 👍

[@mattstrains416]

Also, 2:51 😂😂

[@marquepadley2715]

Awesome looking coaches, love what you did with putting people in them. I liked Gary's O gauge comment with alternating the short with the long diaphragms this might work better, either way big thumbs up.

[@maccustoms2295]

Isn't it to early for snow (packing peanuts) on the layout. Lol !! Great review and unboxing. Have a great weekend. Stay safe.

[@Ericstrains]

Ha!

[@whatisgoingon7600]

Ok, I haven't watched the channel in a while, and I love the fact you named your cat Chessie (?) I think thats how you spell it

[@AtkataffTheAlpha]

To Eric: it's Atlas To Chessie: it's Catlas

[@conorwigglesworth9112]

I liked when 765 was pulling the cars

[@rolothePRRQ2]

It's funny to me that the soo Line transfer diesel fits those passenger cars perfectly, despite the passenger cars being for monon. Also miss the heavy mikado(i feel model train companies don't do heavy usra engines as much as light usra locomotives)

[@cantrellwd]

Beautiful cat!

[@ncopictures7182]

Not certain if you do requests, but on the off chance you do, i'd love to see a review on the new Lionel ten wheeler when that comes out and the dockside switcher.

[@kyletroknya2419]

I like those kind of coaches. They would look great with a Lionel e8. I’m hoping to get an e8 by the end of the year

[@michaelsullivan1262]

That was fantastic!

[@sadams12345678]

They made a mistake with the combine car; the interior is backwards, the baggage section should be ahead of the coach section. Yes I know that you could just simply turn the car around, but then everybody will be riding backwards.

[@davidstrainsandlego]

Those monon cars are really nice

[@angryrailfan5711]

When I first looked at the cars I thought they were Pennsylvania Railroad cars

[@christophercddelrosariocoish]

I have a special type of tool that I use all the time is called Performax Safety Cutter from Menards

[@tjprptchable]

Awsome video Eric

[@Chessie1985]

Nice passenger cars Eric!!!

[@rayblack6183]

Great unboxing! Now the guy with no legs needs a o scale wheelchair. Lol.

[@benlahrman4149]

Have considered running your trains outdoors? I have a small oval of Lionel Fastrack that use outdoors sometimes... but I run HO scale outdoors mostly.... I got photos published as well. Perhaps being in Georgia you can take your photos to Stone Mountain and photo shoot their

[@Ericstrains]

Ben Lahrman I’ve thought about it but it’s too damn hot here in Georgia for me to do that. Ha

[@mrhyd388]

Lmao great video with some laughs. Would mix matching short with long diaphragms help with derailments? Also, so cool you ran them with multiple trains!

[@vettetrooper3116]

Love the video still waiting for the Coors Light train review

[@UrbanChicken64]

Those cars looks like the Polar Express Cars. Really nice video 👍

[@trainlover9943]

Awesome cars! I want some in Long Island!

[@aidensypolt]

i like it when you get passenger cars.

[@texhaines9957]

Not sure about Monon but most trains I've seen would have combine direction different & RPO would be in different location.

[@davidschaadt5929]

I always liked the heavyweight cars better than the streamliners .nice video!!

[@cbranalli]

for what it's worth - i've been very cavalier about using utility and serrated kitchen knives. just two or three days ago - i was sawing through several layers of duck tape - necessarily applying considerable sideways force. (i was attempting to separate two plastic cafeteria trays bound with the tape - tightly together - clam-shell style.) i was taken unawares when the serrated knife in my right hand cut through the last threads of duck tape - ALLOWING THE TRAYS TO BREAK FREE OF EACH OTHER - and the point of the suddenly unimpeded knife sprang forward and stabbed the palm of my left hand. (i should have foreseen THAT danger.) fortunately the cut was not too deep and with a good disinfectant and bandaging the wound closed up quickly with no inflammation. needless to say - i'm much more careful now about keeping my hand and torso out of harm's way.

[@lioness72118]

Seems cheesier loves your layout eric

[@zeeeman8744]

Wait ! Are you going to do a video on butchering chickens ? I believe Lionel did a operating poultry car a few years back.

[@timothydemarco3525]

i been waiting for a new video from eric

[@IansTrains]

I bought a atlas reefer car and for some reason it has plastic wheels and trucks and couplers

[@angelhelp6819]

Eric don't forget we put the passenger car 🌞👍from Atlas the big boy on it

[@Ericstrains]

What?

[@angelhelp6819]

The Lionel big boy to look up behind it the passenger cause what you received

[@zeeeman8744]

Oh now I completely understand

[@Ericstrains]

@@angelhelp6819 oh ok

[@robertcrundwell2782]

I'm an HO person, but have my wife's 70 yr old Lionels. Could you use one shorter diaphragm against a longer diaphragm to run on the the 0-72 curve? Am a big passenger fan, and this is a lovely train.

[@Ericstrains]

Yes. I've done that before

[@railfanjk8964]

nice video

[@Ian-qs3fz]

I had a cat named atlas so I thought it was really ironic to have a cat in the beginning

[@TobyPasman]

All you need now is a Monon steam locomotive

[@radioflowers]

I want these, sadly I'm out of a job.

[@TobyPasman]

You and I are on the same boat

[@felixthetrainfan4819]

@@NOVARailandWeatherEnthusiast he reviewed his model a long time ago but so glad he still has it YAAY :D

[@joseph7119]

Eric, I have a question if you put tiny magnets on the ends of the diaphragm. Would they hold diaphragms together?

[@iandean7129]

The only problem with that is magnets not being strong enough to actually connect or too strong where they don’t separate when uncoupling. I tried using magnets to make brake hoses and finding the perfect magnet for these kinds of things is really difficult

[@michaellindsey8044]

[@owentomlinson8045]

What soo line locomotive is that? I’ve never seen one like it before.

[@theracetrackroute]

Hey Owen, it’s a Lima-Hamilton LT-2500 Transfer Diesel. @ericstrains did a review on it back in August 2013.

[@owentomlinson8045]

Joe cool thanks for letting me know it’s an interesting locomotive!

[@Ericstrains]

That’s why I got it, because it’s so unusual!

[@Mnrr6131]

Are there any Monon locomotives

[@mattstrains416]

Lionel just catalogued a new Monon Light 2-8-2, so that’s an option.

[@Mnrr6131]

[@intermodalman123]

Hey Eric, I've started to dabble in scale O . What is considered fair as far as second hand/older stuff goes? I'm looking at a NOS MTH Railking Gp9 listed at it's original MSRP ($299), is it worth that much or should I wait for a better deal?

[@consolidationproductions]

intermodalman123 It depends on if it’s proto 1, 2, or 3. If it’s Proto 2 or 3 I would pay that price for that engine. If it’s a proto 1 I wouldn’t get it.

So?

[@seanthornton9969]

Eric, all the crap about the knives is nothing but nanny culture not safety. Nowadays it seems no one except a few want to control everyone like a hovering nanny, since you are a knife collector I am certainly sure you know how to safely handle them. Tell the Nannies have a coke and a smile!
