This is interesting. These are evidently rotating platforms that the trains ran on, my guess very slowly just to show the wheels moving while these "diorama" type displays turned. My guess is the trains were set to run at the same speed, opposite direction, of the turntables.
no idea prolly some hater, but like i said the hobby shop has all the equipment to make replacement parts and such so like thats one thing they do, they sell DYI repair kits with parts to build your own AF or lionel loco so like u learn the basic look of the "insides"
I love the "levitating logs"!!

what's with the boxcar? I live about a mile from where A.C. Gilbert grew up. The house is now a children's museum in his honour.
