I couldn’t help myself…

The526 set is for my Great-Grand-Nephew’s 5th Birthday.

The Tin Plate Cars will be replaced with Marx Plastic cars

before I ship it to him.

I couldn’t resist another drink of that Kool Aid…

This one is my birthday present to myself.

Very nice Dave.

I picked up this Marx sparkie set from Pete Thorton’s daughter.

Yesterday I bought another Marx sparkie at a train show.

Then I couldn’t resist this Marx engine for $5. This looks like the electric version of your 401.

It’s not Marx,

but it is my Favorite Lionel Locomotive…

the Lionel PW 221 Dreyfuss Hudson with the 221W Tender.

Not content to haul freight with the 221 Dreyfuss, I began the hunt for NYC Streamline cars to build a consist. My first acquisition is a Lionel O27 NYC Poughkeepsie Observation Car.

I’ve got the head & the tail to the train, so now I just need to fill in the middle.
