Wonderful video, Ron! Thanks for the deep and comprehensive dive into a Lionel pre-war classic. No wonder it was a great seller for the boys in Hillside!
In my youth I acquired one of these that somebody had painted gold but I was enthralled with it so much so that now in my adult years I have six of them this is one of my favorite Lionel engines
Nice and informative video. I've never liked working on Lionel steam locomotives. They are just a pain in the rear. The one thing, though, make sure that nobody uses a polishing compound-style wax. It will harm the surface, as it has a fine substance made to clean stuff out of automobile paint surfaces before waxing. Regular carnouba wax is just fine. I use Simonize on my AMT passenger cars. They are aluminum and they just shine like a mirror when I'm done with them. Either way, an excellent video.
Absolutely fantastic, Ron ,as to how you resurrected this '36 Lionel back to life and gleaming too ! I thoroughly enjoyed your video❗I don't know much about pre-war Lionel except for what I might see at a train show or up on Ebay, so your background historical information was very interesting 😂🚂❗
Thanks Ron. If you notice, between this open frame motor, the Pul-Mor and the MPC motor, that brush holder and motor design hadn't changed in over 70 years. And then Lionel LLC did the can motor thing. Great vid.
I like when engineers don't mess with something that just works :-) Can motors are better suited for them fancy sound loco's with computer chips driving them around. Thanks for watching!
WOW, you are awesome! To do what you do, it's amassing. And of course, your Billboard was on the modular layout at the Desert Empire Fair last weekend. ;)
What a spectacular find!!! Shining beautifully!!! I did not know you could do that with those rivets. I figured once you pulled on the part, that was it. Outstanding, brother!!! 33% go hard!!😂
Thank you! This was an amazing antique store find but I of course paid to much for it. I dont think that pin can be swedged to many more times. An old Swedish trick I learned from this Mediterranean Feller. Thanks for the channel support!!!
Love the video! I have a prewar motor that looks identical to the one you just serviced here , i got it all back together and it wouldnt run. I could not figure out what the problem was untill i watched this video! I switched the brush plate screws and wala!!! I have a running motor again!!! I guess sometimes the most obvious and most simple issue will get you every time....lol thanks for all the videos very educational!!!
GREAT VIDEO, I enjoyed it very much. I bought a 1668 (2-6-2) on e-bay several years ago for $25. The add said it did not run. Found a electrical short in the e-unit. So I removed the e- unit and re-wired it to run forward only. Cleaned it up, put new brushes in it and it is one of my best runners. I rely like the pre-war trains.
That was an outstanding video Ron. You did a fantastic job on it. The locomotive looks and runs great again. The Torpedo was always one of my favorites. I have the twin brother to yours which is a #1689E. The 1688E and 1689E were the O27 locomotives. The “O” Gauge big brothers were the 238E and the #1668E. I have both the 1689E and the #238E. They were my fathers that were handed down to me, and I in turn will hand them down to my sons. Excellent video Ron! Tom
@@classicmodeltrains Yes, the #238E and #1688E are definitely bigger. They’re wider and a little longer. My Prewar #238E was made as a 4-4-2, and my #1689E is a 2-4-2, HOWEVER, in 1996, Lionel reprodced the #238E, and the #1668E using the original tooling for the shell of the prewar #238, but corrected it to be a proper K4 as a 4-6-2, and it was made with very early TMCC, but this time it had a hooter whistle for sound, and a smoke unit!! I did a video on the prewar #238E and the 1996 reproduction #238E along with a little history lesson on this locomotive. It’s on my channel if you’re interested to watch it. Let me know what you think if you do. Thanks, Tom
Hi Ron, Great video! I've got one of these that I've had for many years. I could certainly sympathize with you on the e-unit repair (they can really be a pain sometimes!).
Hello Roger. Thanks for your kind words. Is your Torpedo still pounding the rails? Yeah I would pay good money for the jig to assemble those dang E-units for sure!!
Yes, it still runs! I'm a Lionel collector, and I've got others that I run, so the Torpedo sits on the shelf most of the time, but you know how bullet-proof these old Lionels are. A drop of oil here and there and send it down the line!@@classicmodeltrains
Awesome Jr. set, the cars look nice too. Those tabs on whistling tenders are just as much fun, realizing that the commutator will need oiling every so often.
Hey Ron, I ordered a set of 3 of those fiberglass pens you use all of the time. It just came in from amazon and I tried it out on some electronics I am working on, and it works like an absolute champ! Very, very happy with that. I have no idea why more people are not using that. I gave one to my daughter for use on her jewlery. Thanks again.
It's from Epidemic sound. A service for music. Now I'm going to have to watch Shawshank (again!!) and see if its the same. I liked the "feeling" of that clip of music. Edited the footage to match :-)
Another great job bringing an old toy back to life! Part of the hesitation when you were testing the engine on your dirty track lol, could have been from some of the wear on the slide type power pickups.
That set is in remarkable condition. I agree with you on the e-unit. They are a pain in the back side. Many four letter words get muttered reassembling them!
You needed the patience of a saint, resurrecting that E unit! Raymond Loewy had great vision for an eye catching locomotive. It makes for a wonderful model.
Thank you Ron for another excellent video. I will stick with HO locomotives after watching your work on what to me is a system I do not completely understand yet find facinnating. I just wonder who thought this stuff up when watching your exploration of the mechanism. Truly amazing. :-)
33%'er just turned 55 the 25th October... Ron, dazzling locomotive... your personality shines as well as the locomotive. But, your humor is the cat's meow! ("dog's bark" doesn't work.) Awesome job, videoing and such, history and great commentary... as always. Keep up the good work [and play]! Your videos keep me motivated {yours and a few others}. Good luck on your auction, I believe you'll get a pretty penny for that set \and for some reason I'ma hankering for a BabyRuth/ but they don't sell them up in Canada. ("Oh Henry" is a similar chocolate/candy bar.) .....distracted, train off in the distance. John
Welcome John. Were the same age. The old body feels it, but my mind still wants it's youth back. But the Adult sized checkbook is a better way to be ;-) Thanks once again for your kind words!!
Love these later O gauge tinplate engines. Interesting the design difference between the chassis on this compared to the 259E, a lot more cast parts, and different center rail pickups. A lot of design evolution between them! Not sure why, but my 259E can traverse an MTH O-31 switch. I think it's because the side with the gear teeth is going over the side without the frog, but it's one of life's mysteries. Just noticed "Lord of the Isles" hiding back there on the shelf - I've added some details, crew figures, and paint to one of those, they're simple but clean up nice.
This one was a bit different than other Lionels Ive worked on. The journey of exploration in taking them apart to see how they tick is always enjoyable for me. A few people have mentioned that "Lord" loco up there lurking in the dark. Very distinct profile it has. MTH 0-31's? Sounds like heaven to me to own!!!!
Very nice video! Makes me want to start restoring my trains now. Quick question; A while back I've acquired some Lionel post war O-scale from a friend of mine, however the box i got them in had signs of it being in a flood and some of the rolling stock was custom painted and had custom decals on them. How do I remove the paint from the rolling stock, without messing with the original under color and print underneath? I've also tried restoring a Lionel #66 Semaphore (made between 1915-1926) that my great grand father owned when he was a child. The main issue was that the main mechanism to move the arms was embedded in the ladder and was in bad shape, however the thing worked perfectly electronically. In the end I've just ended up super gluing the ladder in place and accidently breaking a few tabs off. I wish there was a place I can take it to to fix it, however the closest place that fixed them closed a few years back and the closet place that does fix them is over an hour away. I would give it to someone online to fix, however I don't want to pay a lot of money to have them fix it. I'm still relatively new to restoring items.
Its pretty tough to remove one layer without disturbing the original layer. I use a ultrasonic cleaner and simple green to remove paint. Could strip it down to clean metal and then start again. Practice on a couple of junkers till you get good at it.
I'm sorta waiting until I get a larger area to model / repair in. I want to get a small arbor press for installing. I guess I would ask around what pullers other Fellers use when working on this bit bigger stuff
{ C L R } Work Great , Especially on any rust copper metal an brass !!!!!, Including Track, And rust on Track !!, A little go's Along Way!! , MARRY CHRISTMAS !!, HAPPY NEW YEAR !!! PEACE AND LOVE !! ☺️🐕🦺
I have never owned or worked on any pre war Lionel. The one that has always eluded me was the Blue Comet. The original pre war 1936-37. You asked a video or two back for merch ideas. How bout a 33% club t shirt? I would be in for that.
Greetings Kent. To be honest I'm not 100% sure if this is a '39 or a '37. I get conflicting information off the google machine. Thanks for your kind words!
Great video. I knew several railroaders growing up, from the B&O and our neighbor worked for the New York Central. They referred to all the stream line steamers as "Old whores in a new dress."
@@classicmodeltrains My son came over for a visit ( Hockey game) so I paused for a while but man, I really wanted to see you dig into this jewel live for a change.
Always use ( CRC ELECTRICAL CLEANER ! ) MY TRAINS DID THE SAME THING UNTIL I USE THAT, GOT IT FROM HARBOR FREIGHT $10.00 A CAN !, IS WELL WORTH IT, MARC TRAINS ALMOST A HUNDRED YEARS OLD AND THEY RUN LIKE BRAND NEW!
Wonderful video, Ron! Thanks for the deep and comprehensive dive into a Lionel pre-war classic. No wonder it was a great seller for the boys in Hillside!

Thanks for your support John. It was pretty cool working on such a old one.
Beautiful train. Can’t believe it was in such good condition for being that old.
Thanks Paul. I'm thinking it was stored in its boxes for years and years
Ron, you have done another fascinating job !
Thank you Norman

@@classicmodeltrains You're welcome. (Just got home from packing up the Club's modules from last weekend's show)
The beginning of the video is awesome
Thank you Steven!
Nice old art deco design !Thank you , that was interesting to see how early toy trains were made .
Glad you enjoyed it
What a spectacular find!!! Shining beautifully!!! I did not know you could do that with those rivets. I figured once you pulled on the part, that was it. Outstanding, brother!!! 33% go hard!!😂

Very creative and cool music video intro. Thank you maestro.

Eventually, yes. @@classicmodeltrains
Had that set in the early 1960"s. Nice to see it again, brings back memorys of childhood.
Lots of good memories come from the models and toys we play with as "adults" huh? :-)
Great video Ron. Really interesting to see how older O models work! Thanks and take care!

OOOhhhhh..... A "BLUE COMET"!!! That would be an awesome find for sure. I think a 33% Tee would be a great idea!!
i'm a bit new at this but is there a way to bypass a bad e-unit?
Yes there is but you have to be kinda knowledgeable with electricity flow and provide power to the stator electro-magnet and brushes.
I have a 1947 or 48 Lionel train set (incomplete and not greatest shape). Does it have any value and who would buy?
It might be worth something to somebody. Give me the road numbers on the cars I can look them up.
Where ae the connecting rods?
it has everything on it that it came from the factory with
Dang A year too late for that auction. How much did she sell for? I be hooping like 4-500$
I cant remember exactly but it was a lot higher that I though it would be. I think your pretty close
👍👍👍
I see you've been busy bing watching! Thank you for interacting with them all Nick :-)
Do you know what Lionel did during the war?
Made electric servo's for airplanes and some other test equipment for the war effort I hear

very cool!
What is an E-unit? 🤔
Lionel's solenoid operated reversing unit. Their "trademark" name for it is a E-unit
I'll try and send you some pics of it
send to my Facebook fan page "Classic Model Trains"
Something interesting to me is that this thing is older then some real steam engines
Never thought about it that way.....but YEAH!
A wonderful toy train! Looks great! You are a great mechanic! I am not.
Thank you very much! Practice can make perfect
Honey I shrunk the S1
:-)
yeah!! thats what im talkin about
Like a Swiss watch!!
Doing the E-Units with out the right tools Sucks big time.
Yes Sir it does!
Always use ( CRC ELECTRICAL CLEANER ! ) MY TRAINS DID THE SAME THING UNTIL I USE THAT, GOT IT FROM HARBOR FREIGHT $10.00 A CAN !, IS WELL WORTH IT, MARC TRAINS ALMOST A HUNDRED YEARS OLD AND THEY RUN LIKE BRAND NEW!
