STEAMday Sunday 1/18/2025 Edition | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

I must confess, I’m now obsessed with trains and what I’m about to show you.

Is it because I had one of the best days of my life attending Trainstock and once again seeing the largest O Gauge train layout in the World?

Is it because of the great comradarie of the New Jersey HiRailers, their down to earth charm, and great food?

Is it because I’ve finally gotten my Lionel Legacy NY Central 0-6-0 steam switcher with swinging bell to consistently run well on my layout without stalling on my O31 curves?

I think it’s all of the above.

Here’s a few photos of the steamer:

“She will ring and swing her bell throughout the town.”

I think that swinging bell is too cute for words:

Looking forward to seeing all the steamers you’re excited about. Just be sure to post only photos and videos you’ve taken, or those in which you’ve gotten the written permission of the owner to post, and also comply with the Forum Terms of Service. Arnold

Thanks for the steam up Arnold! Here’s a MTH PRR 2-8-0 # 9943 on the point of a TOF train. Moving under speed restriction through town.

Arnold,

It seems like Lionel has really got your number with that swinging bell.

New York Central 2-8-0 Consolidation #960, a Lionel Legacy model (2231120), is my Steamday locomotive again for this week.

Shown on my 10’-by-5’ layout
