The York Trainshow is a little out of my reach. I treated myself to a new PRSL tool car instead.

Some 3D printed pieces I picked up this weekend. Ice chest, USPS mailbox, newspaper honor box, Auto trader and pallet. It’s so cool to see people bring fresh talents to the hobby.

Picked up this standard gauge 520 at the train show. It was good condition with original paint, clear Lionel Lines heat stamp and just a little rust. Replaced the wires, some cleaning and did A LOT of polishing. I’ll need to replace the glass lenses at some point. Fun project. #modeltrains

Didn’t buy too much at the train show today. Spent most of time looking at the layouts. A lot of care went into creating these highly detailed Southwest scenes.

Part of my Lionel electronic set. This set was produced in the late 1940s. The set is unique where you could send radio waves through the track to control the train, whistle, uncouple and operate a dump car. It would be another 50 years before Lionel tried again w TMCC.

Purple Heather came up on my playlist. Such a good song for the fall. Think I’ll enjoy the rest of this playlist over some backyard beers. 🍻🎶

Woohoo! I buy a lot of paint from these guys. It will be good to finally browse in person. If you’re in the Tucson area, be on the look out.

Bought my first ever brand new car today! 2026 Chevy Trax. I’m dont think ive ever bought a car with less than 50k miles. This one has 5 miles. My best backyard mechanic days are behind me now and wanted something new.

Armature rewinding is both my least and most favorite repair. Without further ado…1…2…3…4….

Close to wrapping up this Lionel 250 restoration. Wasn’t running, full of rust, scratches, grime and faded paint when I got it. My goal was to get it running and look appealing on a layout. Glad I could breathe new life into this train with some deep cleaning and fresh paint. #modeltrains

This prewar Lionel 807 was sitting around primered for the last five months. Finally got some paint on it this weekend. I have boxes of old prewar stuff not being used. Think I’ll spend a good chunk of my time restoring these for no other reason other than seeing it run on the track again.

I’m not really a car guy but thought this looked pretty sleek. Anybody know what kind of car this is?

Been spending so much time fixing everyone else’s trains, haven’t had time to run my own trains. Good to be back in the saddle. #modeltrains

Meep Meep! This one legged roadrunner (road hopper?) has been all around the neighborhood. Seems to be doing OK, feasting on some yummy bugs right before I took the picture.

A little Olympic hockey train run. Hopefully the USA can stop this diesel.

Surely Lionel is going to mail me a refund check for the “15% tariff fee” I paid on pre-orders and keep all further pricing low…right?

Watching scenes of the Golden Gate Bridge during the Super Bowl. I’m reminded that the steel came from the Bethlehem Steel plant in my small little hometown.

I have a hockey skate blade sharpener that looks like this. Run it back and forth on the blade to smooth out the edges.

Really digging this e-unit jig so far. The piece that holds the drum and unit in place is great. The two finger piece is still a challenge. Might be doing more repairing rather than buying new eunits.

New custom run from Henning’s Trains. Upper Merion & Plymouth hopper car. Rainey-Wood Coke Co. hopper car. These cars hauled coal between the steel plants along the Schuykill river in suburban Philadelphia.
