I like the modern era of lionel. Postwar is okay i have few of there models The modern era is in my opinion very realistic and I'm amazed by all the sounds and features of the models.

The Norfolk Southern hi-cube is actually a standard O ,a scale car. It's a model of a 40' high cube. I would consider the other cars 0/27 size. Semi- scale is full width And fairly close to the real thing. O/27 Are much more narrow or skinny cars.

I have some operating philosophy where I want the locomotives to be as mechanically simple as possible. I use cheap Bluetooth speakers and hide them in a car. That way the sound doesn’t add complications to the locomotive. Anyways, my post war F3 temporarily stopped working due to a wire disconnect, but I was able to solder it back

@davidstrainsandlego 9 күн бұрын

That's what's nice about older locomotives. If something goes wrong, it's easy to fix

@JerryTheTankYank1776 9 күн бұрын

@@davidstrainsandlego you have no idea how much I disassemble my f3 for repairs. Sometimes a motor fails because a brush is worn out, so I just replace them. Also this might be confirmation bias because used, but the LionChief passenger cars have those tight screws that are in deep holes not wide enough for a good screwdriver. Also have riveted trucks (I hate riveted trucks) They still look good with my Postwar engines, but those are some pet peeves I have with theme

@Coreyt1976 9 күн бұрын

Not all of the modern stuff is junk. There’s a lot of old stuff that doesn’t work good either. Unfortunately things with this engine didn’t work out. If you want the new features and technology, then buy the newer models. Especially if you don’t want to sit by a transformer to run your train. The hobby is changing and some people don’t want to accept the change.

@ronalddevine9587 9 күн бұрын

STOP buying modern JUNK! You are going to have problems now, or 5 years from now. Electronics are nice, but Chinese production is making everything as cheap as possible. With vintage products, you can still find parts, even 50 years later.

@davidstrainsandlego 9 күн бұрын

There is a lot about modern lionel I like, but I agree that their production quality control is severely lacking, and something that worries me is how my trains are going to preform in the future, I will eventually learn how to fix modern trains, but even so, finding the parts will be much harder
