Operating Lionel Postwar Brakeman, Giraffe, Cop & Hobo Cars

[dsmith]

For a fun time on my layout sometimes I like to run some of Lionel's operating  freight cars.  I have erected the Cop & Hobo platform over one of my tracks along with triggers to operate the brakeman and a mechanism for the Giraffes to duck under the platform.  So here is my fun video that shows all this in action.
