I will dig, I think I have them. I know I sold the original penny 4-4-2 after I got the lion chief 0-8-0, but I might have the rest. thank you for watching!
O 27 is O gauge. Meaning the distance between the rails. Just another style of track like Fastrack, Super O, Atlas or Gargraves. The main difference between O and O27 is the rail profile. Its shorter than the Large O track which scales to 80" in the real world. Lionel never changed the wheel designs to run on the different rails. That would have cost too much. O27 was made in Radii up to 56" and possible larger and 42" switches are also available. Steam locos were made with 3 and 4 digit stock numbers to be included for O and O27 sets such as the 675 and the 2026 which other than the numbers were identical. One could argue that the cars made for O27 sets were a smaller scale but they run well on any O track. I prefer the smaller rails because it looks better. Still a bit tall (Why its called High Rail) but the trains look better on it. I'm not running a Monorail! Ha ha.
@@LedgemereHeritageFarm A lot of people confuse the two. One of my pet peeves. Some think Lionel made different wheels for each track but the cost of that would have been ridiculous. The Near scale cars such as the 6464 box cars and the 6462 gondolas were used in both O and O27 sets. And the F3s will run on the smaller rails as well. Some of them don't look great on the short curves but still work just the same.
Nice set, I had that same locomotive (bought it separately) when I had a layout. Really enjoying Tom’s Trains!
I love your cats they seem very curious about the train 😁👍
thank you. the mother has loved them since she was a kitten
i had an NYC 4-4-2 with RailSounds. i swapped the guts out of it into my Boston & Maine tender so it would have the sounds. Thanks for watching!
I have 3 versions of my Pennsylvania Flyer and the passenger car expansion just missing the freight expansion but I love the basic set

I don't think I really knew the difference other than the height and I didn't know 0-27 could be a longer radii. thank you
