    Nothing short of probably being one of the finest modern O gauge/scale collections out there. Appreciate you sharing this amazing collection with all of us.
    You do raise a good point with respect to Lionel re-introducing some previous renditions of Vision Line locomotives. In that vein, I wish they would re-introduce the all die-cast ES44s - those engines were fantastic - would love to see a re-introduction with updated legacy features as well as new roadnames et al.

    Nice collection of trains. Just a little extra info on the European Railion Traxx locomotive. I'm a locomotive engineer with DB Schenker, that is the current name of the former "Railion" company.
    Your locomotive is a Bombardier Traxx F140 AC1, also known as a "Baureihe 185" in Germany. The difference between AC1 en AC2 on the Traxx F140 can be seen by the shape of the front of the engine. The engine number 185 084-1 also tells it is an AC1.

I have two from MTH, one Premier and one Railking and recently have taken delivery of the G Scale model.

    I was eating a chicken salad sandwich and when you said that about the 4014 BIG BOY, I dropped the plate and the sandwich AND I took a Big Boy gulp and started to choke. I'm OK but I would have laughed right at the time if you would have said something like, "Originally, this was released this 4-8-8-4 in bright Kelly Green paint scheme.". Then, I would have known it was a joke.
