A man visited our club last week and handed me a bag of train parts. It was an Ives engine. We were able to put it back together and it runs like a champ.

A random act of kindness! Nice little engine Don!
Someone disassembled it and either forgot how to reassemble it, or the donor got it that way - in the bag.
I love breathing life back into these broken wing birds.
Good work.
and it could have so easily gone into the trash. beautiful engine.
Very nice save
Sweet!
Good Heavens, it's a live Christmas story! That is really nice.
Wow, that doesn't happen very often. Nice job of putting back together.
Edward & Harry Ives would be very happy about this. Glad the Ives engine is back together & running again!!!
