Just testing to post pics of my Train Collection


Recommended Posts


  • 3 weeks later...

Those were WF-R36 made by MTH in 2003. I've had them like this for 5 years no problems yet but I will b getting more wood soon. Just in some housing trouble so no new construction yet until all settled. Luckily the cars are not that heavy and the brackets are mounted on the beams. I also feared that more wood would create way more weight on the setup. The setup will be rearranged to place more trains on it. Stay tuned and thanks for the comment. By the way how fun is it to ride the rails all day?

Sorry KR but that wasn't an R44, that was an R42 (D) train I also have it as an (E) in the silver paint scheme with the new (MTA) logo. I put a video of my longest passenger train of New York Central. You'll see my collection better that way.

 

I meant 42 my hand slipped lol:tup:

As far as making a train run around a room it is possible because I have mounted a track 7 feet high and it runs smoothly. I will soon post a video showing the easy feasibility of this project. I do sincerely apologize for the long post, but just wanted to show my railroad collection in "O" Gauge. Any questions...... Please.

There is a 4 car powered set on Ebay right now. The two car set is not but also if you are looking for the world's fair blue number (7) it is also available on ebay. The original (N) brightliner R32 is there but pricey as well as the graffitti (D) version of the R32. The R1 set is also up for auction check them out but follow this strategy. If you are serious about buying a set and have the cash wait for 5 minutes before the auction ends and bid 20 to 30 seconds before the auction ends to give yourself a good shot at winning. If its at $350 bid $400 to give some extra cushion for the win. Good luck they are out there just go and find them and win!...
