- Modified these to run on my layout, added yellow LED lights, and front pilot supports. The Santa Fe James Gang 6-1053 was made in 1980-1982 and the Redwood Valley 6-1403 in 1984.
These are not Sets the way they came from Lionel. I bought just the cars I wanted for each Train the way I liked them and went from there on my project of Lionel Generals.

Anthony, thank you for your kind words, I appreciate it. God bless you also.
Great 1800s scene! Trains headed for Dodge City with Wyatt Earp on board!
I like Westerns. Thank you Joey.
This stuff was pure fun, plain and simple. Thanks for bringing these cool trains to people that may never have seen them.
Terry, these trains may be overlooked because they were the economy trains. I appreciate your comments, thank you. -Steve
@@stevesoscaletrainchannel.1901 marx were economy trains too but they are also awesome.
Nice work. I always wanted to have a general in my collection. The Santa Fe one looks very sharp
They are fun and it was a rewarding project.
Thank you for comments.
Very cool Steve! Great projects and great looking Generals!! I need to add a General to my collection one day!! I love all the horses too, especially the stock car with the bobbing horse heads!! ❤️🚂😎
The Santa Fe white horse is always moving.
It was a very fun project.
Thank for commenting Brian.
Excellent video Steve. Nice touch with the yellow headlight & extra support wires. Nice camera work too ❤
I thought the yellow LED's would look better.
Thank you Jeremy.
Love those figures.Great running session
They do have a neat shape. Thank you, Artur, I appreciate it.
I’ve always wanted to get one of these and turn it into a Disney World locomotive. Maybe someday. I really like what you’ve done with yours. I’ve never tried hooking up a bridge rectifier to a DC motor before. Now that I’ve seen your video, I may give it a try. Have a great weekend. Bob.
Thank you Bob, I sure appreciate your comments.
You could make an inexpensive General into a custom. I bet it would look nice.
they do look fun Steve! Reminds me of the Marx Crooks locos
They are fun John. I bet you would come up with some great cool creations.
Great video , I come across those sets here and there .
Yea, they were not the top of line items.
Thank you, Ray, for commenting.
A General is on my wishlist, Steve. Hope to get one someday and maybe turn it into the Hooterville Cannonball from Petticoat Junction.
I remember that, Uncle Joe movin kinda slow at the junction, Petticoat Junction. Thank you, Terry, I appreciate it.
Hello Steve, Fantastic these two American 4-4-0 steam locomotives with these very nice trains. The scene with the horses being loaded is great. The red Santa Fe locomotive is particularly beautiful. Thank you for the excellent video and your explanation of the two locomotives. I wish you a nice weekend and best regards Wolfgang
Wolfgang, thank you for your kind words.
I enjoy the Santa Fe line and this project was lots of fun. You also have a great weekend.
Cool! If you want to keep some of the cars from being so loose and wobble, add a C or E clip inside under the truck rivet.
If the cars do have plastic wheels then they cane be used on 2 rail O gauge trains as well. The early Atlas O gauge scale was designed for two rail, and their coupler will mate with Lionel type coupler, but also still they had the large flange on their wheels, but could run on normal tubular track or the solid rail track. Gargraves works well for both...
Thank you for the tips. I appreciate your comments. _Steve
Nice project Steve. I love watching the General steam engines running around your layout.
I'm sorry I'm so late on responding. Thank you, they are fun to operate. -Steve
You did a fantastic job Steve! Love the Generals, what a great train run.👍

John, thank you, I appreciate your comments.
It was a fun project. -Steve
Those are really nice Steve! I love engines and rolling stock from that era of history.
Thank you Ed, I think people are appreciating that era more.
Some good-looking General type sets with nice upgrades. Like the way you sync'd the sound, especially the horses. A fun video.
Thank you Jim, I appreciate it. I was done with the video, then decided to do the horse loading scene. I enjoy doing these kind of projects.
They look great!
Dave, it was a fun project. Thank you for commenting.
I did enjoy it!
Those are neat trains. I enjoyed the old west scenery with the horses too. Thanks
Thank you for your comments. I like to tinker and these trains were a fun project,

Christopher, these economy Generals are fun and colorful. Thank you for watching and commenting. _Steve
Looks like fun👍🏻
Thank you Rick, I appreciate it.
Cool run, I like the sound effects. 😎👍
Thank you John. I have that sound recorded on to 10 second sound chips then played back though an amplifier with speakers in the tunnels.
I appreciate your comments.
That`s a Spicy Meat Ball!
They are certainly different colors.
Thank you for commenting.
Steve. I found some super good 36 foot passenger cars frondike the 1870's. They are kits and cheap
They are very nice looking Jack.
Awesome
Thank you very much.
OK good trains at a good price.
Guss, I think they are overlooked, but I enjoyed them.
Thanks for your comments. -Steve
Hi really enjoy you running of these locomotives my question is after adding the rectifiers do they run one way only or forward and backwards?
Good question, these are forward only. I have put a DPDT switch on one of my Lionel Laser engines so I could run one forward and one backwards together..
I like train
Thank you for commenting, have a nice day.
Another nice video. The Bluetooth speaker in the flat car what was your source for the sounds?
The source for the speaker was my MTH General type steamer. I have it recorded under voice memos on an old phone. Some have used online train sounds. Thank you for your feedback.
