General Lionel Model Train Discussion / Saw a Caboose at the Cemetery Today
« on: April 14, 2013, 05:25:34 pm »
I visited a nearby cemetery today. In a corner of the cemetery was a small area  with a memorial for servicemen and women who were from the town. Someone had left this caboose there on a rock, wrapped in a ribbon. Its a Lionel#517 standard gauge . Yes, I left it there.

This has to have something to do with today's date! Does this paste work on other things?  :)

General Lionel Model Train Discussion / Re: Introductions
« on: March 31, 2013, 05:30:18 pm »
Hi everyone.   My name is Ray and I just registered today. I am a retired cabinet maker and live in N Illinois. Last fall I was able to get hold of an old 1930s vintage Lionel set that had belonged to my father-in law. I had the engine worked over and now it runs nice. Since that time I've picked up a couple of additional cars for the set that I think are correct for that time.

General Lionel Model Train Discussion / Cow catcher on 260E
« on: March 31, 2013, 05:04:11 pm »
I have an old 260E locomotive that belonged to my late father in law. I think its about 1931-32 vintage. It has a cowcatcher that has a coupler. All the 260Es that I've seen so far don't have couplers. Does anyone know if what I have is correct or possibly some add on? It looks original, and just like the non- coupler cowcatchers I see. I think the engine would look better without this coupler coming thru the catcher, but I would hesitate to change it if I knew it was original and correct.
