Dave, your videos have advanced my appreciation for old toy trains.  Thanks for sharing, once again.

I just had to go "full-screen" on the computer to watch your video.  Fascinating, absolutely fascinating.  I can't think of too many things made today, especially toys, that have the potential to last as long as those old Lionels.

Even your standard gauge track looks vintage!  I'm assuming it is?

Thanks for posting!

100 year old Lionel Standard & O gauge trains under the Christmas tree VIDEO

Now that Christmas and New Year's if over, I have finished the video of my Lionel early Prewar trains running under the Christmas tree.  I started out by collecting and operating Lionel Postwar trains, but I thought it would be fun to collect and operate Lionel early prewar trains that are circa 100 years old.  What fun!  I hope you enjoy the video as much as I have collecting and running them.
