Holiday Model Railroad

When I saw this train along U.S. 50 west of Mcarthur in Vinton County, Ohio, I was reminded of Lampy's years as an engineer.

 

Part of my small, but growing HO Scale collection.

Four modeltrains home on my railway.

Modeltrains meetup.

Extensive track layout and free rides around the park for kids, even big kids (parents)

All trains are built and run by their owners, quite an engineering feat.

CNW #647 is an E2 class 'Pacific' 4-6-2 built in 1923 by the American Locomotive Company. It was designed for fast passenger service and regularly touched the 100 mph mark on its journey between Chicago and the Twin Cities. The model is a Pacific Fast Mail brass unit that has been heavily modified to improve both its running qualities as well as its appearance. A Tsunami II sound decoder and keep alive circuit has been installed in the tender and it was custom painted and weathered by Mark Guiffre.

David Lee of Dundas, Canada spent 50 years making this elaborate model train set in his basement to 1/87th scale.

In 2017, it was moved to the McMaster University Health Sciences building at Bay St. and Main St. in downtown Hamilton.

Sadly David Lee died on January 22, 2019.

Train Days at the Los Altos History Museum - a fun outing for a family of train enthusiasts from Grandpa to 2 young grandsons. Lots of model railroads.

British Railways 9F number 92021 sits in a quarry yard on a cold and cloudy Monday morning, waiting for a clear line. This engine was part of the batch of ten with the unique Franco-Crosti boiler, designed to make them more fuel efficient. Note the very worn track condition, typical of privately owned sidings.
