Those tempermental reverse units! We started to make a smooth train video of a set of green Marx Western Pacific E-7 diesels and ended up with a pile of cars on the corner. Fortunately, no damage was done and the show went on. Take a look at the variety of Marx trailers followed by a matching green WP bay window caboose.

  • At least the trains didnt go over the side and hit the ground, I had a Marx 999 do that on me, luckily those all metal dinosaurs are niegh-indestructable, can't say the same for the plastic Marx.

  • same with my pw 2-4-2

  • Dave,

  • Oh my God, what a pileup! was the engineer hurt? Or the train crew? Looks like the engineer fell asleep forward and accidently pushed the reverse handle causing the piggy-back train to screech into reverse. Two or three cars had jacknifed. Hope the railroad police checked that out.

  • better yet put a lockout like the Lionel units all have, or stiffen the contact shoe spring.

  • Accidents will happen! You just got to get out the big hook and the rerailing frog and get that TOFC manifest rolling again.

  • I have the same train. I dont have O scale tracks though :O

  • I have that smae train its a fine runner when the front is on the the track

  • Oh, the carnage. All those mangle bodies:)
