SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

What’s really amazing is we didn’t have to wait years after the initial announcement for the product!

 

Yes the originals had crumbling contaminated Chinese metal battery cover walkways and air hoses.

I replaced the walkways using Plaststruct plastic I beams and painted them grey.

Air hoses are part of the pilot unit purchased from Lima Lionel Parts Co.

 

C-420's are really nice diesels!

Now we need a fleet of Ping Pongs and some double decker commuter cars.

The Alco C420.  Perfect size, perfect sounds, great look---I'm a big fan!

How are the sounds in yours?  The LV yellow jacket in front is the coolest sounding engine I've ever heard.  Knocking, clanking, harumphs....  music to my ears.  The other 3 are the same and are great too, but not as distinctive.  I upgraded the last 2 to TMCC.  Awesome engines.  Have fun.

NLOE stands for Nassau Lionel Operating Engineers. We are an O Gauge club located on Long Island. We have been producing a series of club cars for a number of years manufactured by Lionel and most often based on a local business or organization.
