Watch and listen as we spend some time running Dad's "O gauge" Lionel model trains. There are three trains being run on a platform that is complete with a bridge, semaphores, a home-made mountain tunnel, cars, buildings and animals, horns and smoke from the engines.

  • @TheDonmaster99 We have not experienced that yet, but it is certainly possible that we will.

  • So true. We used to take Dad to a model train shop in New Cumberland, PA . They've still got some of the old fashioned Lionel trains, so if you ever get to that part of the country, do stop in and tell them we sent you.Thanks for the tip on the crossing signal. too.

  • Nice to see the old equipment running.

    Your one light on the grade crossing signal is staying on because the insulation is worn on the contactor clip. This is a common issue with an easy fix. Simply put a strip of electrical tape on the clip. That will insulate the clip until the metal wheels of the train bridge the circut to cause the lights to come on and blink.
