This is wild to see. I purchased the Full Dome car for use at the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad. I then sold it off to Canadian National where it will join their active fleet later this year. I brought the short dome over to WMSR, but have since sold it to Mexico. Regards Adam Auxier, CEO, Railexco
Cool video! I've ridden the WMSR excursions to Frostburg (and the North Pole 😉) several times so I enjoyed seeing this consist. It will be spectacular when you get your 1309 Mallet.
Love the chimes that play before each announcement of a seating in the dinning car. Nice touch. Beautiful set. They look right at home with the locomotives you pulled them with. Congratulations 🍾
Hi Eric those western Maryland passenger cars look great. The crew announcement are so real you feel like your going to. The dining car . I like the lighting only 1 thing was missing people in the cars well have a great day .
We took our 2 year old daughter on 1309 for the polar express run they do it was awesome these passenger car look just like the setup they had. Can’t wait to see them with 1309 when it arrives!!
Damn! Those are some really nice passenger cars. I would gladly pay the price for a seat on one of those. Mind you, they only go in a circle! Still, those are some mighty fine looking cars. Thanks for the video, Eric!
Cars are beautiful and do go good look good with those engines quick ? I'm building a layout and never had modern engines getting some now but anyways when your running these engines if they quit putting out smoke is ok to keep running the engine or do you have 2 stop it and put more fluid in the smoke unit?
Most modern smoke units will shut off when they run out of smoke unit to prevent overheating, but i find it's best to just regularly load some smoke fluid into it to keep it running smoothly. Either that or shut it off completely.
I’m coming back to my childhood super O set that has remained under wraps for 50+ years. College, marriage, children all took priority. I’m now retired and my train set in my parents basement is exactly as I had left it. I want to know how to grease gears and lubricate the electric motors and maintain all moving parts. Anyone got a tutorial for me? Eric, if you are listening, can you do a tutorial on maintenance of engines and rolling stock? I could use some help. Regards, TS
What is the minimum radius track for those beauties? I have beautiful matched NY Central ABA diesel set and 5 all different matching dark gray passenger cars.
@@Ericstrains”the thing about Lionel passenger cars and the locomotive rarely arrive a the same time…..” You did…. Literally the introduction to this video includes you whining about how nothing arrives from China at the same time…..
Video Notes:
1) I added passengers to these cars midway through filming, so you'll see no passengers in some shots and passengers in others.

It sounds like you work for WMSRR?
I think he is a rail car supply contractor, just a guess

Glad you enjoyed it!
You are right about those diesels on the front part of that train! Beautiful!

Thank you 🤗
I'm like a kid in a candy store watching these.
Beautiful set of passenger cars
Nice drone shots on this! I love the new technique.
I LOVE the WM passenger set!
Beautiful set! FA’s are nice
They do look great behind the FAs. Sound car is really cool too.
Wow the cinematography on this one is fantastic! Beautiful train set
Glad you liked it!
Three Words, This is Amazing!
Pretty sweet set.
I love the WM freight set too!
Me too!
Those look great with the Alcos
Great video. Shows how some of the items are interchangeable
That looks fantastic ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love that train
Beautiful passenger set Eric. They look superb with the FA-2's! Looking forward to seeing the 1309 when it arrives.

Awesome passenger cars! I hope to visit the railroad and 1309 in the future!
great set and locos. Looking forward to seeing the steamer.

Can’t wait for the American Orient Express Set hopefully next!
Nice set👍👍
Thank you 🤗
I now know how busy it is in legacy station on Saturday
I wish the real WMSRR owned F diesels like these.

Hey Eric just want to let you know that I love passenger trains and can you do passenger set
I like it
I got a chance to talk to Brian from Legacy Station a few days ago
Cool

I could use some help.

Yeah. I'd like to do a video like that at some point. Modern locomotives don't need a terribly large amount of lubrication btw.
Hey Eric, Awesome review!
Quick question, What are you using for those night time lighting shots?
smart bulbs
Hot take, those are the 2 best FA schemes in the last 5 yesrs
Have you ever lashed up steam and diesel together before? I don't remember
Yes
What is the minimum radius track for those beauties? I have beautiful matched NY Central ABA diesel set and 5 all different matching dark gray passenger cars.
O-54
Been meaning to ask- did decide not to do connector track front to back on upper loop?
Not yet
Think Lionel or MTH makes the best passenger cars Eric?
Depends. Some MTH cars are better than Lionel. Some Lionel cars are better than MTH.
Where's the observation car at the back?
Doesn't come with one.
"I wanted to show you how beautiful these cars are on the layout!"
*Proceeds to turn off the lights for a night shot.*
:D
Hey, they night shots are cool
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
What’s that a drone? Did you really fight it in your house!
Of course not. That would be crazy.
@@Ericstrains How to you made the view so beautiful? i hope it was not to crazy like the big bang theory.
Eric, is there something problematic with the locomotive for that train? If not, you should have the locomotive by July, not October or November.
There's nothing wrong with it, it just hasn't arrived yet. That's all I was saying.
what happen to the engine that you Pre-order
1:25
maybe late november@@Ericstrains
Doesn’t Lionel put passengers in the cars like they used too. For what they charge they should have them
Depends on the cars. On the 21" cars, which is what these are, they don't.
👍🏻💫💫💫💫💫
Same sounds different car. lol
alright
Real bummer that all that expensive stuff you buy takes so long to get here from China.
Who said it takes so long?
@@Ericstrains”the thing about Lionel passenger cars and the locomotive rarely arrive a the same time…..”
You did…. Literally the introduction to this video includes you whining about how nothing arrives from China at the same time…..
I think the FAs look better than 1309 personally, diesel power!!
Yeah I kinda like them.
