  • This box from Windsor Ontario arrived recently and I've been looking forward to opening it. Inside was a collection of vintage HO scale model trains. I tested the locomotive and it started first try. I have no idea who sent this stuff or it's history but in any case it was super generous so to whoever sent it, thank you!

    The VIA-CN era was from the spring of 1976 to mid 1977. CN re-branded it's passenger services as VIA-CN giving it it's own distinctive look. This lasted until the plan was made to integrate CP's passenger services in with CN's under an Amtrak style company to be know as VIA Rail Canada. The new company VIA was to be jointly ran by both CN and CP but with some internal bickering government set VIA up as stand alone crown corporation.

    Way back in the 70's I bought a UP version of that Tyco Soo Line boxcar. It's still put away in storage but unfortunately, this was a totally fictitious model. Nobody has ever been able to identify a 60 foot hi-cube boxcar with a running board with double plug doors that large. Hi-cubes started to really get developed in the early 60's, about the time that running boards (aka roofwalks) were being outlawed on new cars (1964).

    VIA caboose is fairly rare.
    That caboose is actually based on a Pennsylvania RR class N8 - but they moved the cupola to the end. Bowser makes a correct model you can check out on their website.
    Lionel car has a Canada only roadnumber on it. The two are mirrored, looks like, the CP logo on the left on one and the right on the other.
    Tyco Autoloader is a clone of the Athearn HO piece made for Lionel HO in 1958 (itself based on the Lionel O27 car); Tyco version appears in 1968, at a point when Lionel was out of HO and the Athearn one had not been sold in some time.
    The Cox engine is a decent piece. Walthers I believe owns the rights to the tooling for it now but has not produced it, Model Power was the last to have it and it had an entirely different drive.

    An example of the short lived venture into HO scale model railroading by Cox.
    Those Tyco cabbese I don't think had an actual prototype they were based off of and seemed to be a fusion of some Wabash and Burlington home built designs and or a modified Pennsylvania N8 caboose.
    I know about 30 years ago I grabbed 2 of those old Tyco cabeese from a discount bin at one of my local hobby shops and made a pretty accurate PRR N8 by hacking the roof of both models for donor pieces to center the coupola and provide a clean end roof piece,carved off the molded roof walk and replaced it with separate roof walk and then built a fully detailed interior and lighting.
    It's stored up in the garage loft currently.

    Nice rare F-unit. Cox engines were good runners, great livery. Give it some basic maintenance and turn it loose on the layout. I loved those old Tyco auto loaders. They are very common and can be found cheap at train shows. Grab a bunch of them and build a solid unit train with a pair of U30-C’ s up front.

      They didn't. Tyco products were mostly intended for the "toy train" market and much of their products were either completely fictitious models, or reasonable models with fictitious paint schemes - whatever caught the eye and could sell for birthdays and Christmas. The caboose model you're referring to was operated by some American roads such as CB&Q, Wabash, Great Northern, etc
