Lionel CNJ Hudson (4-6-4) O-Gauge Steam Locomotive with the Blue Comet set in True HD 1080p

This is another of the "short madison" sets from the MPC era of Lionel that I collected when I got back into the hobby. This was one of the separate sale sets, where you bought the cars and the locomotive separately. Coming out in 1978, the locomotive has the "Mighty Sound of Steam" which you can hear in this True HD 1080p video, but no whistle. It's a Hudson (4-6-4) whereas the real Blue Comet was pulled by a Pacific (4-6-2), but as a model from 32 years ago, we won't quibble. :-) It also has the wispy smoke characteristic of the era. For the time, it was a good looking, good running model train. Other than the steam sound, it's a purely conventional locomotive as you can tell from the E-unit lever sticking up out of the boiler. Please visit my web site -- http://www.toytrains1.com -- for lots more videos and photos of both real and model trains.

I love the Lionel Blue Comet set!! :-) The Halley combo car was the first train car I ever recevied. When I was going through college in the early to mid 90's I hunted down the other cars. I'm a member of a local train club and we will be running conventional models this weekend and this is what I am planning on bringing!! :-)
