The K-Line engine is great!  I recall seeing lots of Chessie trains in much younger days!

Mark, I never spent more than a few hundred dollars for a new engine. K Line made fine products in its final years that were relatively economic. My recollection is that I bought this K Line Chessie system diesel in the late 1990s for $300 to $400. It's an excellent runner and puller with excellent detail for the price. It also runs quiet, which is good for a change. I often run it while playing music. Combining trains and music is one of my pleasures. 

It certainly did well in the video!

I'm a little late for the B&O party...I had an HO scale Dockside when I was young a recently picked up a sweet Right-of-Way Dockside and 2 Wagon Top cabooses, one from super honest LEAPINLARRY (I'm still using his caboose photo).

Never too late, Tom!

Thought this thread would be a good place to ask if anyone may have for sale a MTH:

Took this last night...

The subway for Flatbush Ave. and the N&W Fast Freight are both thundering through the switches in the upper and lower loop yards while the MTH Premier Chessie Show Train "The Gold Train" is waiting for clearance on the outer loop.

Had wanted one of these MTH Premier Chessie Show Train sets since cataloged about a decade ago. A chance encounter at the LHS allowed me to pick this mint set up from a longtime customer who I've known for many years that was reducing his collection. Purchased new at our LHS and always serviced there.

This one is for Brian and you other B&O lovers:

Now see this postwar 626 B&O switcher pulling B&O and other Eastern freight cars and a B&O caboose:

They just keep rolling along don’t they?  The 626 is very nice indeed!

      very nice Arnold !!

          really cool Andy !!    nice picture !

Any pics of the new Lionel Legacy NW2 B&O 9500 switcher ?

On my radar - Thx

Nice Beano Geep 9 in the new Lionel 2018 catalog...'Capitol' paint scheme! (See Brian's prototype post above 1/4/18)

Yes?  No?

K Line Diesel with running fan on roof and caboose:

Great detail and very smooth running engine for the price, which was reasonable. My recollection is the locomotive was about $300 around year 2000.

Here it is in action hauling coal:

After pouring thru this thread, this little engine isn’t very well represented...
