Here is a short video of my LRRC 2003 Lionel Happy 4th of July Boxcar with Lights. Happy 4Th Of July Everyone. 

Thanks Alex, the FLAG Looks GREAT!!!!

Chessie nice car with the lights!!!

Thanks Popsrr!!!!

You are welcome Chessie!

All my Bicentennial trains are in storage while I rebuild my layout.  Here are pictures of a few of them.

 

Our only 'Flag' train is this handsome Premiere UP Heritage SD70

Flags are flying on operating locomotives.

 

 

 

CAPPILOT Very nice pictures to share with uThank you.

 Don't have anything flag-related unfortunately but maybe this will qualify: a train bearing some of our nation's finest military hardware from years past!

Good post Mike for certainly without our Military and that equipment we might not be celebrating this special holiday at all!

The local fire department is celebrating the Fourth by having an Open House and Equipment Display.

The preamble express pulling (hard to see in photo) Long Island blue and red stripe passenger cars:

 

 

 

Some red, white, and blue LIRR equipment:

Nice pics, all!

 

Keith, can you say who made those tank cars?  I'm not sure I've ever seen them before.  (tried to read the writing, but it was a little small for me to try to see if manufacturer was listed)  Thanks.

Popsrr, couldn't help but show my 9/11 car too.  Still a tough day for us.  Obviously UP's flag car is not mine but I just love it when I able to see it.  Have a great 4th.!

Dave,
That is one tank car...pics are of each side of it.  It was made by Weaver for W.O.W.(Wonderful O-Gauge Warehouse).  Car number has WOWX2001 and says NEW 9-11-01.  I got mine from a forum member about a year ago.  There is no model number on the box.
Hope this helps.  It is a nice car.

Preamble Express and Williams Bicentennial cars.

Delaware and Hudson 1776

 

Happy 4th of July everyone! 

Have a happy 4th!

 

The 1947-49 Freedom Train and the 1975-76 American Freedom Train. Some K-Line, Lionel, MTH, Max Gray and 3rd Rail.
