MY 57 EMBARRASSED A BUICK GRAN SPORT..DON'T TELL PAUL..
One of my favorites is the yellow and gray 2023 alco sets. I have It's twin in the silver with gray roof. I also have the yellow and grey locos but ive yet to find the passenger cars at a price that works for me. But I still use them to pull my Maine central freight cars as they are all yellow sonic works for me.
One year I just got an engine for Christmas and told my dad to take it back and never buy me a train again. Best day of my life. Trains are torture for kids.
Wow, that's sad.
@@krmtrains Kids hate trains.
The grill is ugly. The rest of the car would not win in a beauty contest. Stodgy and frumpy looking.
Very cool. Keep it up
Their designers were still stuck in the past when you consider what a 1957 Dodge, Mercury, or Cadillac looked like !
They also had no money compared to those other companies!
We did not realize it on our arrival, but the USS EDSON at Bay City is a decorated Vietnam-era destroyer, not from World War II. I apologize for the error in the video.
it's been so long!
That eccentric is a tad off. It will seize up the engine of not corrected!
Which one?
@@krmtrains the rear. set on the right side facing away from the camera Watch the video again, you’ll see what I mean.
What type of curve track did u use?
There’s a variety of track used in the videos. There’s a lot of Lionel O-72, but some Gar Graves that my dad used on his layouts.
What brand of switches are those?
The curved ones are Ross.
I love seeing this tradition. Nothing more synonymous to Christmas then electric trains. Great video
has this been at the Blue Swallow for years?" was there before, car looks familiar
Been there since 2013, and in Tucumcari since new.
Sounds like 9 door knobs in the dryer
We had some trouble early in with the a/c compressor, which freed up over time.
Some beautiful trains!
You brought out the big guns.
I see some of my favorite trains.
First visit. I'll be back. I believe the the bench work is the most difficult part.
Awesome engine
This gets my Best of UA-cam award: beautifully done! Lotta warmth, love, and tradition here . . . and lots of great Lionel trains!
Thank you!
Are those 21 inch passenger cars what curves are using for your passenger car.
There are several different sizes in the various videos. The aluminum cars are Lionel 16 inch, and there are some 18 inch ones too. We try to use O72 whenever possible, but we have some O54 as well.
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
That was fun
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you very much for sharing your trains. Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you, Greg.
My dad grew up with lionel tranis I now have them and the new stuff lionel is makeing. this year I pulled out the old school trains and set them up around the tree so many memories love it thanks for shareing.
I’m glad you are enjoying your trains!
Wow the memories those trains have.. I hope they create memories for more and more generations!! Love the UP locomotive
That UP set has been in our family since about 1975. Of course, it was already old then!
The unadulterated exuberance, grace and sheer athleticism is astounding!
Excellent Adventure, Roadburners!
Join us one day?
Sounds great!!! been looking on the market for a few months for one. Post more!
I'll try to get something in the next day or two, if the sun comes out. The car is now running, and driven regularly.
@@krmtrains Did you have this car, up for sale on Craigslist in Ohio for $6,000? Seen one exactly like it.
No. This car is a permanent resident at the Blue Swallow Motel in Tucumcari, New Mexico.
I had to swap out the wcfb on my 327 for a holly 600 with an adapter plate, works well. I also took off the mechanical fuel pump, converted to electric and added a electric wiper motor conversion. Pretty neat car but I wish mine was manual,
Bless you dear Boomer. So many of the Blue Swallow Inn friends will miss you.
