Looks like Lyon Metal survived (since 1901) in Montgomery Illinois the railway did not.

Great pic Randy!

Wow that is an old find. Is that blue coats during the Civil War or a reenactment or??

Anyone want to live near the train tracks? I see this place is for sale.

Picked up this little gem this Christmas. It is a Z Scale Marklin collaboration with the Franklin Mint. Not sure of vintage but I am going to guess at 1988 ish? Only 2500 made. All complete in original box. Needs a little TLC but not much.

Show-offs..."we can lift a car"...
Couldn't those guys find a level spot to load that onto the tracks?

Murray..
your Monday pic was great.
Those times back in the late Forties must have been wonderful.. cars with chrome & wood adornments and those luxury equipped trains to take a trip across the country.!
awesome.
