Following Don, here’s a very busy station platform:
Hopefully I got it right this time!
Have a great day everyone!

Following station platforms and Boxcab Electrics.
Lionel 256 was introduced in1924. Lionel was rubber stamped on the side. This model, with brass nameplates was a 1927 revision; which also included the addition of working brass pantographs, brass whistles, and brass bands on the air tanks.
Edit to include station platform.
Stangtrain got in there while I was assembling my post.
Well I am not sure I am responding to @stangtrain (P.S. yes you got it right, great picture by the way) or @pennsyfan. Which means I need a box cab electric AND a station platform. So here you go, its the best I could do. A box cab electric approaches the station platform (extreme upper rt in the picture). This one is a Hornby Hatchette 0 P0 loco (Hatchette like MTH and Williams Lionel tinplate repro's did the same for Hornby of the 1950's in the late 1990's).
Best wishes

Don, is that Big John standing in the truck bed; before he saved the miners? 🤪
@pennsyfan - Bob, you got that right! Big John it is...you may remember I commented to you that whenever I traveled I tried to bring home "something" for the trains. Well about 2 years ago, the wife and I traveled to Ireland and the only thing I could find was that outsized cast figure...so he had to go somewhere

We all have old tank cars but do we have really decrepit old tank cars? (That make us wonder why we keep them. )

Bob
