Wow...If you look on Youtube, Gary also built an operating RPO car. Really creative..thought some other folks might want to see this.

Too cool, thanks for posting this. I've been wanting a MTH leland for my layout but between the price and how rare they pop up it's just not in the cards. This might be a good substitute
I put the video together and posted it. Gary has been sending very short clips of some of his projects as well as a lot of photo's. You should see some of the Mallet type loco's he's made from Marx 333's.

This is fascinating. What is it actually built from?

The cars are modified Marx M10000 pieces, plus these are Gary's words "2-1/2 days of tinkering, a Marx reverse unit, Marx switch selenoid and plunger , 3 Marx figures, bellcrank, special track section,many changes, and you have the makings for disappearing passengers".

Yesterday Gary sent me a series of short video's of some creations he did about 30 years ago. I have compiled them for him into another Youtube short.
