Seeing no one started it.
This is a recent set I have gotten
That is one Beautiful Set!
Wow!

That's the style, Will!
Great find, the set AND the original box!
Fife pup gifted me a new Apple iPad. Here's my first video effort.

Looking good Fife.
Takes a pretty clean picture!
Same me, different spelling!
Fife, those videos are great! Hard to believe that General can pull so many cars!
I also have a little story about a General set I saw a few years back:
There was a train store I used to frequent, and many Postwar Lionel and Flyer engines I have came from there. Unfortunately, this store is now gone.
Anyway, one day I went in, and because of my purchasing habits, was escorted over to a Lionel General set. Immaculate condition of the trains and box. I believe the box was gray, or gray and red. When I asked the price : $600. Couldn't get past that in my mind....
Now, when I remember what I saw, I think
" Yeah, it was expensive....
....but...."
Oh wow! Fifedog's layout brought to life! How cool is that?
Dittos to what Paul said, I didn't think a Lionel General could pull like that!
Looks great Fife!

Flint/Paul - When the track is level, the Lionel generals are capable. But any grade, fugetabowdit. All 4 lines are as close to 0% as I could make them.Penny - I was immediately impressed with the picture quality of the iPad.
