Back to the Future III Delorean (lights and sounds) on YouTube. Will Lionel, MTH, or Menards ever produce anything like this? | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

I would purchase one if Lionel produced the exact same operating one as shown working!

I made an O-guage "track riding" one from the 1/48 model . It is not powered because the movie one was not powered.

In the movie, it was pushed by the engine until it made the needed speed then traveled into the future where it was promptly destroyed.

So this was a very short-lived movie model. I agree that lights would be nice but not sure on it being self-powered.

I would love to see yours, Alan.

The one in the original post is also a "pusher" but used track power for lights and sound. I think lights would be nice once reaching 88mph to simulate the time travel beginning, but shouldn't be on all of the time. Easy to say, hard to do - which is why I am lobbying for a manufacturer to produce a set with one included in it

Ventura County Railroad was the name of the railroad operating in Port Hueneme, California when the end of the movie was being produced.

This might be the diesel at the end of PART III.

From what I could find online, it’s an Alco S6.

Whatever you do, do not dial 2020 as the year!
