Good afternoon everyone.

 

    This is a video of my new Lionel Santa Fe aluminum passenger cars, I just bought for a pretty good price. They are really beautiful in person, and eventually I will sell off all my other passenger cars and change to all aluminum. Which will have to be done a little at a time. This is a 4 car and a 2 car set item numbers 6- 25608 and 6-25613. I'm absolutely thrilled with them, the interior detail is beautiful. Enjoy and thanks for looking.

 

 

Thanks, Alex

Hi Sam thanks. Sam I'm pretty sure you can get that engine a lot cheaper than that

Guys correct me if I'm wrong, I think they went down to 825.00.

Sharp. I have the earlier TMCC #3751 and a set of the K-line 21" aluminum cars.
(Really, my 21-inchers take up too much real estate; I'd really rather have the 15" version.)

But I wish that there was a way to close-couple these cars for those of us with larger
curves; that 6-foot gap between your beautiful cars' diaphragms just really stands out. Badly.

Not picking on you - they all do it. Adjustable coupler shank? (I know, operating
couplers, engineering...) I'd accept dummy couplers if they'd make them available for
a reasonably easy retro-fit.
