thats some very clean relics,but where is the "o" scale stuff ?
I think you are confused about what is "o" scale and "o" gauge

check out the "sticky" that explains the difference

again that is some very nice post war trains you have ,thanks for sharing the pics. .................Mike
 
#5 · (Edited)
Hello MIke,

I'm not really confused on the difference. The reason I stated "O" scale is the fact this thread is under an "O" scale folder. Most people actually don't know the difference.

Thanks for the compliments!

More fun to post pictures.

- Jason

do you just collect ,or do you have a layout ?

what rolling stock do you have ? or do you just collect locomotives ?
reason I ask, with a great looking collection of locos like that ,you must have other stuff............lets see it ..please......................Mike
Don't have space for a layout, so currently collect.

I collect everything. I just haven't gotten to rolling stock yet. I still need to post the engines/take pictures of another 10 of them.

Darn nice!

Please keep posting.
Will do.

Wow! Lots of cool stuff! But no layout to run them on?

I'd go nuts if I had all those wonderful PW trains and no place to run them. You might try mounting a loop or two of track on an old door. Store it on end when not in use. That's what I have to do, but it's a layout. Those poor old lokies need some place to stretch their legs once in awhile! :D
 
#14 · (Edited)
Yes I know it's sad that I don't run them. I just don't have space or my own place yet. I'm still in college. All my trains are in long term storage.

Your last batch of pictures in post #11 are not working?
All your others I see, I get this when I click on them,

vBulletin Message Invalid Attachment specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator



Nice collection you like those little switchers huh?
Me too.:D:thumbsup:

The 2341 looks too clean, someone must have repainted it.
You want to get rid of it?:p:thumbsup:

Too bad you don't have room to run them.
Ed,

Should be fixed.

Thanks for the compliments. Yes I like switchers and as you can see I like diesel engines.

That 2341 is unrun and is in perfect condition...:)

Remember I'm still in college and have no place to run them. This thread is just a summer activity I decided to do. (Boredom is great for you guys and boring for me!)

Thank you!

Yes they are showing now.:thumbsup:
Do you have any Diesels?:p

I still say the 2341 looks like a fake.
It looks too good to not be an imposter.

Sure you don't want to unload it on me so you can get an original?:p:thumbsup:
Ed,

You may be right. It's a grey shell with New Jersey paint scheme. Really good job. Didn't pay much for it either. The chassis is the rare part... It's unrun...:laugh:

If you happen to find a real 2341 let me know I'm in the market for one. I'm also looking for a 2347. Do you know anyone that has one?

If I buy a real one, I may let that engine go. I'll let you know.

- Jason

Ps: I'll post more diesels now...

Pretty, Pretty, Pretty !!! I'm jealous...

Thank you!

PW,

We had a question the other day regarding the loco that's shown in the MTF banner image ...

Is that an NW-2, similar to yours above ???

Seperately ...

Do you have an insurance rider on your large train collection? These photos would be ideal to document the trains from an insurance standpoint.

TJ
 
#31 ·
Tj,

Tough question... My guess would be : Baldwin DS-4-4-1000 switcher :D

http://www.calcoastrails.com/cgi/photo_show.php?id=1310

NW-2 and SW-1 both have (2) smoke stacks so they're eliminated.

No insurance. I was thinking about getting some, though. I just decided to take photos of everything I have (I have a inventory list). I can keep track better (w/photos/list), but this would also be good for insurance. (Decided to show the MTF the photos as well. Just for some entertainment.) Hoping everyone is enjoying the thread so far.

John,

Thank you! I believe this thread might actually make a good reference.

- Jason

Thanks for the loco/insurance info above, Jason.

TJ
No problem. Talked to insurance company today. They want a picture of everything I own.

I have more. I'll post later. Only 4 more though.

I have (4) sets of:
Lionel #26926
Lionel #26927
Lionel #26928
Lionel #26929

So I have (4) of each car. Each car in the set has a different number (Order sequence).

and one set of:
Lionel #26920
Lionel #26921
Lionel #26922
Lionel #26923
Lionel #26924
Lionel #26925

I have (1) set each w/ different numbers (Order sequence).

I have (1) complete order sequence from 1-10. With (3) sets repeating numbers.

If this makes any sense to you. All you need to know is that it creates a BIG train. :laugh:



Throw some loads in those and they'll make a great ore train! I have 15 ore cars, that's my intent.
They are going back to storage. :( One of these days, I will have my own layout. I will share... till then they go back into boxes.
