Today November 30 2016, I am turning 54 years old and watching this video meant a great nostalgic moment for me. When I was 8 or 9 years old, my dad gave me a train very similar to that. It was Trian-g brand and I also placed it on the floor. I wish I could go back to those happy days! Best regards from Venezuela.
Caroni100 Me too. My first set was at like 6 years old. Taught me all kinds of useful stuff like electricity, light construction and artsy stuff like scenery. Spent quality time with dad and brother too. Young people are missing out leaning many skills by only doing computer stiff.
Caroni100 I just wish it wasn't so expensive
Caroni100 I have my first set running right now

I love all of your trains Lionel
I love how realistic they are. I went to a train museum (and they had huge lionel sets as well as real ones) the coupling system is identical, the wheel size proportions are identical, the lights on the tender are identical, even the coupling and connecting rods are identical. The amount of detail that goes into these models is insane, and expensive.

I Remember when Fastrack first came out in Michigan a train club bought physically all the track in Michigan so I have to wait for another shipment and when we got it my dog's tags hit both of the rails and made a huge spark and scared the living crap out of her she never went towards those trucks again those were the good old days back when Lionel headquarters was just a few miles away
Harley Wilson will
I remember the good old days when Lionel was made 3 miles from my house in NJ and the head engineer , Frank Pettit , lived 2 blocks from my house !
Lionel does need to design transition clips to attach there simulated steel bridge piers to attach to fastrack as the wooden piers would be found only on much older circa RR's or temporary shoring.
You don’t know how many times I’ve watched this videos.
Only limited by your imagination and your income.

I was thinking the same thing
They are to expensive what ever happened to making quality products at reasonable price
Don't make a 6 digit income? Your Fucked!
Lionel has never been cheap.
@@joelmarksbury4376 well they've been affordable for almost every in the 1950s prewar and postwar. They were way less expensive than this!
nice film.
i honestly think the main thing holding lionel back from a younger audience (such as myself) is the price. In todays world Im going to want aphone for Christmas and maybe try to save up for a train set during the year but thats not realistic. If the sets were 40 dollars( which would be easy with lowering manufacturing costs thanks to
imports) i think it would help hook younger kids into the hobby i enjoy. (im 13 btw)
Look these trains are bit more expensive to make then You think I once worked at Lionel and the manufacturing cost is about 100-200 dollars per set and then They add 100 dollars to make a profit
TO DARN EXPENSIVE!
too*
yeet worth it..
But high quality and so many different options
Yeah I was looking for an o gauge grain hopper and it was 90 bucks
no it's not
thank you for the advice I'm maybe getting my first one today😀😀😌😌😉😉😄😄
4:01 She's thinking that's heavy?
She hasn't felt a heavy locomotive until she has felt the weight of a N&W Y6B or 2-6-6-6 Allegheny and believe me, those things are damn heavy.
Lol or my 1930s prewar american flyer that thing is SOOO heavy!
lol ikr?? I used to collect standard gauge back in high school and my 400e nearly broke my hand when unboxing it on Christmas morning haha
My SD45 is heavy enough, A Y6B though...
That's nothing compared to lifting a real locomotive, not that I've tried
Diamond Skye more like the real UP big boy!
4:50 not true
i love lionel
6️⃣0️⃣3️⃣🚂😎. Koolest
Why were they using manual switches?
Have they heard of Automatic Switches?
they're not electronic, they're automatic.
ehh msrp 100 $ for fastrack electronic or automatic switches
well their both electronic and automatic and some (or all) can be accessed with the TMCC and Legacy remotes.
I mean they made the automatic switch
To show that it's entry level
Yes, prices for all model railways puts me off.....
i got lionel for christmas and im delighted but my peselvainia train 8625 wont work
i LOVE YOU LIONEL!!!!!!!
I DON'T LOVE YOU LIONEL
+MultiDell90 wut the hell?!?!?!
.
gennaro gerrard :P LOL
I have the polar express but I can't make it long because it's on carpet
What should I do if the buttons on my transformer become stuck?
Did any of the ready-to-run train sets in the 2019 Lionel catalog inlude the transformer shown at 2:52?
I'm considering venturing into O scale, any advice? I will still operate my ho scale layouts but O scale is an option I've got my eye on for a while
I’d love to have a train setup going around me room. But there is no way I can afford it.
Go to the next trainsshow and there u will find all kind of cheap trains set and engine for cheap
@@michaellindsey8044 Ive been to one, I remember them still being pretty expensive. Although I was probably like 14 or something so I didn’t have a whole lot of money
2:11 do I need a stopper at the end of my siding?
I have an idea for a new Lionel ho train set
The lionel ho train set is the cannonball express set comes with Casey Jones 4-6-0 no 382 with 1 baggage car 1 passenger car a flat car and a caboose
How popular are lionel trains these days
Hello, good morning, I am writing to you from Bogotá, Colombia, what is the cost of this traim and on what scale is it available, thanks
Btw those wires would go over the post better if they had a hook on em
you could bend over the wires
Im so going to run my polar express on the track packs
Is there a simple way of controlling multiple trains on a double loop layout with a few sidings?
yes a cheap way is to make insulated track pieces. message me for more details if interested
Man I Love Lionel Trains =). The Problem is It takes forever to get new additions because everything is expensive, man I`m never giving up to prices I will make My Empire!!
BeastCrafter106 Those are good words, No matter what stands in your way, keep moving forward to your dreams & never give up.
Alex Floyd Man just got 260 dollars for my B-Day Yesterday, and my hobby shop called me, they got a use mallard and are selling it for $200.
BeastCrafter106 Can you please comment on my videos?
BeastCrafter106, I would recommend trying to find a vintage toy show. I attended one yesterday and bought a light tower and cross section track for $11
TheGamingPianist switch to bachmann
I had that set but i sold it to the ttain show
“The only limit is your imagination”
I’d like to add: “and your budget” if you know what I mean!
Only limited by your space and money.
I have over 90 ft. of track encompassing an entire room. How do I determine the wattage needed to run the train? Thanks
Tucker Not Sucker! Unless it is multiple engines wattage is not the issue. Any 80 watt transformer will do. But you must have good power distribution to multiple points around your track by running common and hot pairs from your transformer to these many points. I'd start with an arbitrary every 12 feet. More if the train slows down anywhere in the loop. Trial and error, have fun, learn by experience.
I figured it out by adding a contact point halfway and train runs fine. You understood my question. Thanks
Tucker Not Sucker! Good to share. Enjoy the journey.
1.8 amps? thats 5 volts right?
I want a train but I don't have money ☹️
Is it Jeff from I Love Toy Trains???
You know the 'I love toy trains' kid still speaks in the same mannerism; just with a mature voice lol
I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT. I CLICK ON THE VIDEO AND NEW EXACTLY WHO IT WAS
Donde puedo comprar vias.Aqui en la ciudad de mexico Urgue
It makes me cringe watching how the whole family focuses on the train as it goes around in an oval.
What? All People, Of All Ages, Can Enjoy Model Trains! There Are MANY Diehard Model Train Lovers Who Are Adults! Just Because Model Trains Are Aimed At Kids, Adults, And Even The Whole Family, Can Enjoy Model Trains! Not Just Kids!
0:55 Wow $40 to $50 for a swich a MANUEL swich!!!!
They are so darn expensive K Line is so much cheaper where the hell did they go
@@nightisright1873 maybe wait gose on sale

Colin LaRue remember, like the man said, Our hobbies are only limited to our thinking.
Alex the Railfanning Redneck™ and your budget ,and room seize
What if you guys made a cartoon
Whole family sitting watching a train go round and round as if it's fun 🙄
sub for more
only limited to ifnyourna 11 year old like me and cant get all th8s stuff😁
lemonade stand i have bachmann stuff
Back in the day, I found many aspects of this hobby interesting but the thing I liked best about our Lionel trains was the ability to use remote-control uncoupling to leave a car on a siding or rearrange the cars in a freight consist. At one point my dad and I had Lionel freight trains each with three freight cars (beside cabooses) for a total of six. (My brother's Lionel train had three passenger cars.) Several of my friends had toy trains of other brands but none of them ever built layouts with sidings, let alone using remote control to uncouple the cars. Please "like" my comment if you like to use toy trains for switching operations or if you like to watch other people use remote-control uncoupling in that way.
0:18 are we gonna talk about that the expansion pack cost 99 dollars
Plus tax it 100 dollars
Thats HALF the price of a normal train set
That is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY overpriced
Did you know that thare are 197492.637204751 ways to make a mdel train layout
i am italian people i dont have a possibility to buy this wonderfull model.....
I want to leave in AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!
That's good to hear!

CarTronics hate to say it but the German models are lot better
0:11 you hobby is only limited to your wallet lol
Kato’s better
IronLover 64 if only Kato did o scale because I'm into o scale... Would love to see the quality
Their N gauge trains completely bow Hornby and Bachmann away, let's see if they can destroy Lionel with O gauge train
0:47 Yo, Lionel, ya cant just do that.. You just copied the entire hogwarts express repainted itr and called it new... How come? like yah, yall trains the best but.. Thats quite lazy if ya ask me.
Shut up -_-
I LOVE BACHMANN,ATLAS AND WALTHERS RANGE THEY ARE BETTER THAN THIS SHIT
