About
I am a certified train freak and have been of this persuasion since 1941. I collect and repair items for operation on my O/S guage '30s-to-'50s pike. My growing HO is in the process of becoming an addition to the existing Season Central RR.

trucks at-last.
My 2420 work-caboose had sat, wheel less, for way too long. Suddenly, as I randomly sifted through some e-bay offerings, there appeared a pair of trucks with the unique bolster plates that looked like just what was needed! Through the usual transaction routine, I soon became the prowed owner of a fine set of the proper set of wheels with-which to place my classic 2420 back into operation. The truck assemblies with the attached mounting plates were a perfect fit, as well as a problem-solving answer to getting the 2420 back on the rails and into operation.

One Serious Hook
This 219-4K Hook& Ball Kit is just the right replacement for the missing hook assembly on the pre-war O and standard gauge crane cars, produced by LIONEL, American Flyer, as well as other manufacturers of that era, that are hard to come by. It's size, weight and heavy-duty appearance really add to the business-like appearance of just about any crane car, as well as the stationary accessories such as the magnet and industrial cranes. Even the light-weight MARX cranes take on a whole new appearance with this well designed component at the lifting end of things.

LIONEL dumpers
The 3859 operating O gauge dump car is a slightly longer version of the 3659 dumper, introduced in LIONEL's line of 1938 remote controlled operating rolling stock. The 3859 remained in production through the end of pre-war production. The shorter version continued in postwar production through 1948 but with the new knuckle couplers. Except for a few changes to trucks and couplers, the 3859 stayed pretty much the same until the ending of pre-war production. These were great eye-catchers and their trouble-free operation was the result of a fairly simple system of durability and good engineering as well as quality production. I like these long dumpers and have quite a string of them in full operating order. Twelve of them can challenge the average lay-put and can sure put the average locomotive to the test. This particular 3859 was received in near perfect condition; just a bit of light-duty cleaning and a few dabs of lubrication and this classic worked like a charm.
