Here's my 1941 American Flyer set. It's a bit of a rare set in that it's O Gauge but 3/16 Scale.

Here's the Loco.

The Baggage Car.....

The Passenger Car.....

And this set had a second Passenger Car with the same number.

 

And now to see it run.....

  I took this shot awhile back during one of the local get-togethers.  Since the Lionel 773 is (except for the tender) scale size several of us thought it would be fun to contrast scale 4-4-0's and the Lionel Hudson so various and sundry brought over their trains and I set everything up and took the shot.  It really does emphasize just how small those old 4-4-0's were.

Okay its not Sunday anymore in fact it's Tuesday but heres some of my latest prizes and some older ones I have

first up is Lionel GP-7/9's all TMCC in fact theres a NYC GP-9 missing its packed some where in the mess shown at the end of these pics

try this again did this with 2 other pics but nothing seemed to come out lol.

Okay here the first F-3 A and the 2nd F-3 A are lionel The F-3 B's and the othere 2 F-3 A's all are Williams. all these are conventional but probably down the road will become TMCC.

And here I have another NYC GP-9 in one of the containers that are stacked this way as still working on the floor here did get the wall done so the floor is next.
