Long before Hudson's pulled the 20th Century the K3 Pacific did the honors for many years on the New York Central headliner train.

Another awesome and informative video. Thanks, Carey!
I like seeing vintage models and learning about them.
Jack Ferris' Scale Model Railways produced some great looking models - after WW2 he founded AMT (American Model Toys/Auburn Model Trains) in Auburn, Indiana and produced 3 rail aluminum smooth sided passenger cars (first streamlined cars in O gauge - before Lionel), then corrugated side passenger cars (before Lionel, and in 9 different body styles), nearly full scale 3 rail boxcars (before Lionel's 6464 and far more to scale), and their RDC (before - drumroll please - Lionel). O scale/gauge lovers need to know about Mr Ferris O scale/gauge work.
Thanks for another informative glimpse into the past, Carey! Good stuff all around.
