New Rail Car and Interurban |
New old LGB Wismer Rail Car. Great deal on eBay. This model hasn't been around for awhile but it's prototype is a "Freisenland" Rail car in Germany. This, of course, is special to my wife. You see the train nut on the right. Of my 4 boys, he truly loves trains. |

The Hartland Interurban is one of the more recent offerings from Hartland Locomotive Works. It is built off the long Hartland coaches. It's color is the cast plastic. I bought the undecorated. There is a limited edition Chicago and Northwestern that only St. Aubin's has. |
This unit was pulled apart to examine it's workings. Pretty simple and uncomplicated. That makes it easy to work on and possibly add some details as this unit is sorely lacking in detail. It IS a good, solid runner though and should last forever. I like the power assembly on top. I prefer running this over the LGB trolley. I will probably dirty up the LGB trolley sometime. |
This has one motor and 2 Drive shafts that extend to each truck so all four wheels push the car. It comes with interior seating and two removable figures. Both figures have magnets on the bottom and there is two metal plates for them to attach to. Nice little touch. Typical LGB smooth runner. It ;ooks good on the trolley line. |
This is a covered bridge that I bought about 3 years ago. There is a gentleman that makes these in Tucson and sells them on eBay. They are more to scale of 1:20.3 or larger. I use this as a trolley bay. |
