Since so few have ever seen OO running, here is my 1938 set running under our little tree this year. Everything from the locomotive and tender to the track itself is correct for the first year of production in 1938. Both the way the track fastened together in that year to the grey hopper and yellowish box car were unique to that set. The caboose was lettered Pennsylvania, which is correct to the style of the caboose. Later ones were marked NYC to match the locomotive a little better. The Hudson also used a pin on a chain like the O gauge 700e to connect the tender to the locomotive. Later versions used a spring loaded pin instead. Merry Christmas from our family to yours! AD.
