A quick look at the Lionel Engine of the Year for 2024. Spectacular! And yes, I left the tender truck foam in. Whoops!
After watching the least efficient UPS driver circle my neighborhood and revisiting many others all day it finally arrived. He was within a 1/2 mile of my house at least 3 times in 6 hours.

Wow. This is one of those that had no appeal in the catalog but now it's awesome. Thanks for posting

It definitely came out really nice. I am really pleased I went in on this!
Where did those cars come from? They look great

They are from the "Spirit of the Century".
Marty, I agree. Its a fantastic looking engine.
Great video Marty, especially the non-unboxing. Also it is very important for people to read the manual so you don't have to tell them here on the forum to look on page 4-5-6 for the features they are trying to operate on the engine.
I liked the look of these Atlantic Milwaukee Road streamline type engines, but I just couldn't commit as money was going elsewhere. I have been looking at some of the old Weaver models, which these look just as good maybe even better(I don't believe the shroud over the smoke box opens on those). Excellent run session, I'll have to watch again as at my niece's baby shower and can barely hear anything.
