Lionel used the "Silver Streak" tagline on a few sets. Are you talkin':

Lionel prewar O gauge 279E Silver Streak passenger set containing: 265E locomotive (Comm. Vanderbilt style), 261TX tender, 619 Pullman-baggage, vestibule, and 618 observation ???

You gotta start posting some pics :thumbsup:

You mean to tell me that on this forum of expert, learned, astute train specialists, no one knows what a Silver Spike #11707 set is...? Hard to believe.
Yea, I know.......pictures.

Thanx B&M moderator.
(What's the secret to getting icons into the text...? Mine always end up at the title.)

 

[tjcruiser]

Just make sure that your text-editor cursor is positioned where you want the icons to go, THEN insert the icons. I'm pretty sure that will work.

Edit ...

Ohh ... when you're in the "Go Advanced" editor, use the emoticons off to the RIGHT ... those will go into the body of your text. The emoticons on the BOTTOM are those that go in the post title. I think.

Edison area.

Asbury park is coming back to life you know?
They had a write up in last weeks paper about the board walk and it was packed!

I used to deliver 7000 gals of heating oil there in the late 80's and it was a ghost town!

[locochuk]

Nice to hear. It was always a great boardwalk. I spent 11 summers there and walked the boardwalk every night.
Saw Bill Haley and the Comets at Convention Hall.....wow! The flashbacks !

 

[Big Ed]

So..........my question was, do you have the complete set?:dunno:

 

[fireball 440]

The Silver Streak is Tyco I have the set mid-80's, it's a freight set.

 

[tjcruiser]

Fireball,

This is an older thread. Locochuk had corrected himself in Post #4 ... he was looking for info on a Lionel O Silver Spike, not Streak. Looks like he's all set now.

Thanks,

TJ

 

[locochuk]
