“Toms more of an MTH guy” haha that cracked me up. Subtle shade 🤣 The CSX trio looked great rolling around in September! As always Tom does outstanding work!
Hey man, give yourself some props too. Those FEC’s are yours because you gave me money to almost immediately get more MTH ones 😂 953 is all ready to go, might need to swap 5219 and let me clean it up next… the smoke fluid ghost strikes again 🤦♂️ doesn’t matter how long you can clean it, it always finds a way. Let’s hope it cleans up as good as 953!
Glad to be of service! 😂 Yea, darn smoke fluid and prior cleaner definitely did not help. Luckily not as bad as the other was. Excited for her returning to service!
Very nice, Zack. That is a fine assortment of locomotives, for sure. The E8's are sweet, but the H8 is the best. The H8 is my favorite articulated engine of all time and it would be nice to see a review on it. I've been making some minor changes on my layout, this year. Mostly, maxing out the curves, so the big passenger trains and long freights look better, while navigating the curves. Keep the updates coming. An excellent video, as always.
Most impressive is your collection of Lionel Santa Fe diesels. My favorites is the twin AC motor with magna traction 2343. Those just blow everything else you showed us away. Beauty and quality that can’t be matched. 😊
Very super train haul, Zach. You've fortunate to have a great chain collectors to help you locate the models your most interested in, as well as good fortune at York and some local buddies who have gifted you. I'm particularly attracted to the Lionel Erie Triplex. It's a great looking loco. Lots of presence! Condolences to you and your family on your mom's passing. I hope the time of healing is short and the good memories are long. All the best!
Hey Zach great engines and video! I would love to see you run some of your post war engines, as It has been awhile! Those old units need to stretch their legs once in awhile! lol! Paul from Michigan!
Extraordinary impressive train haul the layout is looking awesome my condolences 🙏🏻 to your family I'm very sorry to hear about your mom's passing we lost our mom 1yr ago may God bless your family
Nice to see your progress and willing to change your layout. Thanks for showing of new engines. I am not a Lionel fan but do appreciate you sharing yours. What happen to your Tri plex MTH engine. I see you bought a new Lionel which looks great. JH
Nice update and I couldn’t agree anymore with some of the things you mentioned, especially the Prices on the modern diesel quick math : 17 of 20 NS heritage, 4of 6 up heritage that’s over 10k and I’m not done collecting :)
Nice score .... Tony & Mike at the Roundhouse South are definitely good people and always take care of me ...... Nice looking additions to your layout , I've been doing changes on my layout also ..... it never ends .....
Zac,; Well another great video, l liked all your new Engines they will do you well. You stated that you are getting a new Polar Express set , make a Xmas video of the set. Plus a small town and station. Thanks great video. Lackawanna John.
The Toy Exchange in Mt. Airy, Maryland bought a ton of MTH parts when Mike announced the company was going to close and there was a feeding frenzy thinking MTH really would cease to exist (Glad that proved wrong). Anyway, the Toy Exchange does a lot on EBay. Might be worth reaching out to them, they have TONS of MTH shells. Probably more Shells and parts than MTH actually has.
hi zack i love that hall of en gines you got this year every one is a winner. its a funny thing everybody i talk to about york says there not looking for engines but sure enough we all purchase somthing real nice . looking foward to your next vidieo.
A great video on your new acquisitions to the layout! A very generous gift from a follower as well. I love the bloody nose SP and UP engines seeing that is what I grew up with in AZ. We had a little Sante Fe/bnsf also.
When Having a Train Party yes Business in Trains will Happen But All N all It’s Good the Power In Model Railroading trading Or Selling Or Buying that’s The Power of Modeling.
I agree with you on this pricing. It drove me to Williams. They may not have all the bells & whistles but I can have 3 engines for the price of 1 Lionel. Also MPC gives me options as well. Sorry that Williams has decided not to grow the O gauge offerings. Enjoy your updates.
I’m with you on the prices crazy not for the working man, man them Csx locomotives look great 👍 all your locomotives look great ,Happy Thanksgiving to you and family to 🍻
I very much wanted to order a polar express set for the 20th anniversary, as sad as I am that I didn’t, I’m happy I didn’t because of so many other pre orders landing at once this month. I don’t think I could afford any more 😂, I’ll have to catch the next re release probably at the 25th anniversary
With you on the sd 50’s. Cant un see that pilot/truck gap. Did lionel make an operating smoking traction motor? Possibly the worst emd engine made. As per the norm, another great vid.

That C&O Allegheny is awesome. I've been looking for one ever since sitting in the cab of 1604 in the B&O Museum in Baltimore this year.
All I can say is wow Zach

The FEC is gorgeous. I love that scheme. I have the Lionel SD40 from a few years ago. It pulls my NASA stuff and Christmas stuff around the holidays.
Awesome video 😊
Glad to see you have gotten some more postwar F3s!
Awesome Acquisitions🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍
Those E8 PC are sharp looking enjoyed thank you

Thank you sir! It is never ending, isn’t it!? Tony doesn’t help that cause either…. 😂
That PE engine and passenger cars will look great. I'd like to see a review on that once you get them in. Take care.
AMAZING & AWESOME 😮
Thanks for sharing, a great collection year.
Zac,; Well another great video, l liked all your new Engines they will do you well. You stated that you are getting a new Polar Express set , make a Xmas video of the set. Plus a small town and station. Thanks great video. Lackawanna John.
Thanks Zac from my reply, again Lionel is the why to have fun. Lackawanna John.
You're definitely right about the escalating prices. A lot of nice additions to your fleet!
Dannggg …lol 😆
Daddy warbucks!
Your new layout is looking magnificent.
Great job 👏

I agree selling old stock make room for the new
Those weathered MTH CSX's looked great. Thanks for posting.
Grreat engines do a review of penn central e8😊
Do What ya Gotta Do 👍.
hi zack i love that hall of en gines you got this year every one is a winner. its a funny thing everybody i talk to about york says there not looking for engines but sure enough we all purchase somthing real nice . looking foward to your next vidieo.
Nice new additions Zac!
Chris at Nassau hobbies is a great guy, His pre order prices are awesome. Love the Allegheny
Bloody nose SPs will look great on the layout Zac, my father worked for them in the early 70s.
That’s an nice layout buddy
Very nice haul you got right there! I really like the Lionel Penn central emd sd38s and the gp30 they look cool and have a nice detail on them!
A great video on your new acquisitions to the layout! A very generous gift from a follower as well. I love the bloody nose SP and UP engines seeing that is what I grew up with in AZ. We had a little Sante Fe/bnsf also.

It would be nice to see a video on the Allegheny.
Zack! I havent seen your new layout since the early days. Quite impressive. Does it connect to the other layout?
I agree with you on this pricing. It drove me to Williams. They may not have all the bells & whistles but I can have 3 engines for the price of 1 Lionel. Also MPC gives me options as well. Sorry that Williams has decided not to grow the O gauge offerings. Enjoy your updates.
great video Zack!!! you will like the Polar Express when it comes in, I love mine!
Kadee couplers work just fine with the standard O gauge couplers, I use them all the time on certain rolling stock!
I’m with you on the prices crazy not for the working man, man them Csx locomotives look great 👍 all your locomotives look great ,Happy Thanksgiving to you and family to 🍻
Thanks man! Tom sure did a good job on em! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family as well!
I hope you’ll do a lengthy video at Christmas time of the polar express set and all the cars. Looking forward to a really in-depth video on that.
Nice FEC locomotives... where'd you get them from?
I very much wanted to order a polar express set for the 20th anniversary, as sad as I am that I didn’t, I’m happy I didn’t because of so many other pre orders landing at once this month. I don’t think I could afford any more 😂, I’ll have to catch the next re release probably at the 25th anniversary
Wonder If you can Find It In Ho?
Grreat engines do review penn central e 8 diesels😊🎉
I want a video on all of them please lol
Outstanding deals I'm inquiring about if you have any real track's left overs mainly turns and straights price doesn't matter
Thank you! Unfortunately I do not have any of the old track leftover. I traded it off a little while back.
You must have a really wide focal length on that camera or something, it makes the trains look HO!
With you on the sd 50’s. Cant un see that pilot/truck gap. Did lionel make an operating smoking traction motor? Possibly the worst emd engine made. As per the norm, another great vid.
I think they did a smoking/fire B unit for an Alco years ago, can’t say I’ve seen anything else similar to that, but that would be a riot!
Put some Strohs out there and would be better!
You Should be Good For Awhile.
The E8's with the cars please.
Def, the lack of O gauge reviews on E8s is honestly beyond me.
