Love it. Great stuff. As another guy says, don’t overlook the junk.

Excellent job of cobbling together items to give new life to rolling stock to cobble together your unique, one-of-a-kind trains! LOVE IT! Keep up the fine vids, Marx Man! 🚂

I’m the SAME way, Marx Man! I’m constantly cobbling together freight cars/car loads/ locomotives to add to my O/S/HO pikes. I’m presently working on an American Flyer diecast loco/tender I purchased for $7.00 at a train show. I got it running and am searching for a replacement part to serve as a boiler front. I truly derive a sense of satisfaction every time I’m able to repurpose an item. Thanks for your ideas, as you are SO resourceful! Keep them coming! 🚂

I noticed that you use rapid fuse. That is a great adhesive and is useful for repairing broken struts on plastic accessories that have broken struts. Great video on restoring junkers. Take care and God bless.😎🚂🚃🚃🚃✝

Good ideas need to make some flat car loads, I got a big collection of postwar Lionel and there are a number of operating flat cars that are missing parts.

The flat cars are wonderful. Thank you for taking up the challenge. Sorry I missed the initial upload as I was sick but better now. Good job with the KMT shell. You did a really good job with your video too, by the way.
