Page contents:
This model train collection began when one of my Scouting friends mentioned Lionel issued a "Boy Scouts 'Scout
Law' Add-on Boxcar" in 2009. I decided to investigate. Found out this was the first of many BSA-licensed items
that Lionel would be issuing for the 2010 BSA Centennial. I decided to purchase it. And then in 2010 Lionel issued
a lot of BSA Centennial items. I figured it would end in 2011. It didn't! Lionel issued BSA items through 2014.
Not only was Lionel authorized to issue BSA Centennial and other items, but Bradford Exchange was also approved to
do so. However, the Bradford Exchange items are HO scale and only available as a subscription - which I ended up
subscribing to!
Fast forward to May 2013:
The Lionel 2013 Signature Edition catalog displayed a series of "U.S. Made: Armed Forces" freight cars.
In honor of my 24 years in the US Air Force, I decided to purchase the set of 3 Air Force freight cars (boxcar,
flatcar, and tank car). However, just having three freight cars and nothing appropriately-related to pull them
with, I went in search of a suitable locomotive and hopefully a suitable caboose. Luckily I found both: A set
from 2011 honoring President George Bush 41. I also found a couple other US Air Force cars to compliment the
latest three freight cars.
Fast forward again – this time to fall 2013:
The Lionel 2012 Signature Edition catalog displayed a series of Alaska Railroad locomotives. I have a passionate
love for Alaska. While in the Air Force, I spent 5 years in Alaska at Eielson AFB which is 26 miles SE of
Fairbanks. Seeing those locomotives got me wondering, could I put together an Alaskan Railroad train? A little
investigative work on the Lionel product finder web page showed over 50 Alaskan Railroad issues! I was hooked.
So now my Lionel collection includes not only BSA and US Air Force item, but also items bearing the Alaska
Railroad name!
Another fast forward again – this time to early 2014:
Happened to see something that previously Lionel had issued a set of 50 boxcars - one for each state, plus a
1776 locomotive and accompanying caboose in honor of our country's bicentennial.
Thought about purchasing the entire set until I found out it was not cheap - $3,000 for the entire set. Didn't
want to pay that kind of money for something I couldn't set up in my small apartment so I wondered if I could
at least purchase a box car for each state I've spent more than a couple of years in - those states being:
Wisconsin (born there); Alaska (stationed there 5 years); Alabama (lived here 16 years!); Washington (where I'm
currently living); and Idaho (a beautiful state where I recreate). Found out I could. So my collection now
included these states plus the 1776 locomotive and accompanying caboose.
May 2015 – here we go again!
Got notification from eBay the Alabama box car was being auctioned! Bid and won! Found out the seller had a lot
of other items I might be interested. So further investigation and ended up buying the complete set of box cars
in honor of Joshua Lionel Cowen's 100th anniversary of his birth! Plus some State Quarter cars to match the
"I Love U.S.A." cars.
Fall 2015:
I have always had a fascination with Schnabel Flatcars. Found out MTH Electric Trains would be issuing two
different Schnabel Flatcars in fall of 2015. They are used for transporting very large items – oversized
transformers, large generators as well as parts for nuclear reactor plants. They are unique in that the item
they transport is actually part of the car. The car is transported as a whole to the loading location where it
is split into two parts with the item being transported as the middle part of the car. The car can be well over
100 feet in length and can weigh as much as 2 million pounds – including the weight of the item being transported.
The car is so large it requires special routing including a physical inspection of the entire route to ensure
clearance of any trackside obstacles. In case there are trackside accessories that cannot be moved, the item
being transported can be moved four feet vertically and/or horizontally to ensure clearances. It requires a
special train moving not more than 40 MPH!
Having purchased a Schnabel Flatcar, I purchased a couple of other flatcars to show how smaller items are carried.
November 2019:
Received an inheritance. Time to clear out my list of "wanted items".
This web page shows the model train items in my collection starting with K-Line (including K-Line catalogs) items
followed by Lionel items (including Lionel catalogs and K-Line by Lionel items) followed by MTH Electric Trains
items (and catalogs) followed by Kris Model Trains (KMT) followed by Weaver then followed by Williams by Bachmann
then followed by Bradford Exchange (Boy Scouts of America® "100 Years Of Scouting" Express) items
and Bachmann HO items and finally miscellaneous items. In each section items are listed by their catalog number.
Train Collection Themes:
In spite of what it may look like, I collect only items that have specific themes, such as:
Alaska; Boy Scouts; Civil War; Lionel-related; Midwest/Milwaukee; NASA; Peanuts (comic),
State Quarter Series; USA; USAF / Military / Veterans; and World War II
I don't collect every item in each of the themes.
This collection started out to be only for collecting the BSA-licensed Lionel products for the BSA's 100th
Anniversary in 2009. As you can see, it has grown immensely!

K-Line Items – Sorted by Catalog Number
K-Line was a manufacturer of model trains founded in 1975 by Maury D. Klein.
The company filed for bankruptcy in October 2005.
In February 2006, Lionel announced it had purchased K-Line.
For several years Lionel produced K-Line items under the name of "K-Line by Lionel".
Sometime after 2010 the K-Line line of trains was merged into the Lionel product line.

Defense Exhibit Trains of World War II
Both the "Minute Man" and the "Defense Special" were part of Defense Exhibit Trains of World War II.
These trains traveled around the country to manufacturing centers to help manufacturers determine
whether they could do defense work. Each eight car train had six exhibit cars and two cars with
living quarters for the staff of 36. These 18 inch Heavyweights replicate 72 foot cars and feature
fully furnished interiors with figures, patented overhead StreamLighting, die cast six-wheel trucks
and diaphragms. Choose from New York Central, Southern Railway or Chicago & Alton. Each of these
colorful sets reminds us of the days of luxury rail travel when time moved slower and everyone
enjoyed the journey, not just the destination.

Fallen Flag Series #2
In 1986 Lionel issued a new series called "the Fallen Flags".
The Fallen Flags are named so because they commemorate railroads
that were merged into other systems. In all seven Fallen Flags
sets were produced between 1986 and 1993, and one was catalogued
every year except 1990.
This website
contains information
about the entire Fallen Flag Series.
I was raised in Milwaukee so decided to collect
all the rolling stock from the Fallen Flag Series #2
which highlighted the now defunct Milwaukee Road.

K-Line by Lionel Items – Sorted by Catalog Number
K-Line was a manufacturer of model trains founded in 1975 by Maury D. Klein.
The company filed for bankruptcy in October 2005.
In February 2006, Lionel announced it had purchased K-Line.
For several years Lionel produced K-Line items under the name of "K-Line by Lionel".
Sometime after 2010 the K-Line line of trains was merged into the Lionel product line.
Superstreets (K-Line by Lionel)
Superstreets was a product line developed by K-Line to provide a realistic-looking
place to run trolleys and other vehicles. In addition to providing a realistic-looking
street/track, K-Line developed additional items to connect to the Lionel Fastrack system.
Since I have purchased some trolleys, I thought it would be better to provide
a realistic-looking place to run them
SuperStreets 10" Transition to FasTrack (6-21164)
Note: The brown circles you see on the various track sections are
removable manhole covers. This is where you hide the screws
to secure your track to your layout.

1947 Freedom Train (TMCC Alco PA Diesel #1776) (6-21791)
The 1947-1949 American Freedom Train (AFT) was a 7-car train
led by an Alco PA-1 locomotive.
Its 37,160 mile tour lasted from September 17, 1947 to January 22, 1949.
It operated in every state (48 at the time) using 52 different railroads.
Over 3 million people (officially, 3,521,841) went aboard the Train
during its display stops in 326 cities and towns across the land.
At many sites, people waited in line more than six hours to go aboard.
The highest single-day attendance was 14,615.
Lionel produced TWO different sets which together consistes lf the

Merchants Dispatch Transit Hot Box Reefer (6-29811) (click on a picture for a larger image)
From the Lionel website:
When a wheel bearing overheats it causes the brakeman's nightmare known as a hot box.
The scenario begins with an irregular sound and a whiff of smoke.
Crew dialog keeps you on top of the situation with reports such as "Somethings burning!"
and we've got a blazer! Smoke, lights, and screeching intensify until you, the engineer,
initiate an emergency stop to let your crew cool that spindle.

1975 American Freedom Train
The 1975-1976 American Freedom Train (AFT) was a 26-car train led by one of three
enormous steam engines restored just for the occasion. Over a 21 month period from
April 1, 1975 to December 31, 1976 more than 7 million Americans visited
the train during its tour of all 48 contiguous states.

LOTS Philadelphia Double Sheathed Boxcar (6-83862)
Special issue for the Lionel Operating Train Society (LOTS)
(hard to find!)
Background on this car:
2016 celebrates the 240th anniversary of America's independence from England. After hostilities broke out
at Lexington and Concord in 1775, the 2nd Continental Congress convened in Philadelphia, PA with
representatives from all 13 colonies. Some of the brightest political minds of all time moved quickly to
draft the Declaration of Independence. Adopted on July 4, 1776, the Declaration made the case for the
"inalienable rights" that we enjoy today. After the Articles of Confederation proved to be an
unworkable form of government representatives from the original 13 states returned to Philadelphia in 1787
and adopted the U.S. Constitution the following year. There can be little doubt that these groundbreaking
events earned Philadelphia the title of "Cradle of Liberty."
LOTS is proud to honor Philadelphia and its patriotic roots with a highly collectible Standard O-Scale
double-sheathed boxcar. This striking, all Lionel-manufactured car is 11-1/2" long and features opening
doors, die-cast sprung trucks and operating couplers, simulated wood-sheathed exterior, and steam era
fishbelly-style underframe with separately applied metal details. Operates on 0-31 and larger curves.

Preamble Express Passenger Set (2022080)
In preparation for the Bicentennial journey of the 1975 American Freedom Train,
the four-car Preamble Express was dispatched to scout the route
and court host city officials.
For five months in the summer and fall of 1974 the Preamble Express
made calls in all 48 contiguous states. Dozens of display sites were
evaluated and hundreds of local officials and law enforcement were
informed of the requirements to host America's largest Bicentennial event.
After the inauguration in December 1974, the four cars of the Preamble Express
became cars #201 thru 204 of the 1975 American Freedom Train.
I am in the process of collecting all the Lionel-issued cars
in the 1975 American Freedom Train.

MTH Electric Trains Items – Sorted by Catalog Number
(Premier & RailKing)
Thirty-five years ago, the three rail O gauge hobby consisted mainly of restoring and running postwar
Lionel® trains. Thirty-six years ago, the most elaborate way to run three-rail trains was a rebuilt
ZW transformer. Thirty-five years ago, a twenty-year-old named Mike Wolf opened a toy train mail order
business in a bedroom of his parents' home. At train shows, customers approaching his table didn't
realize he was the business owner, and often asked to speak with his father.

In 1999, MTH began a series of "Merger Series Freight Car Sets". This on-going series covered
the many mergers that America's railroads have been involved in over the years.
Each series spans several catalogs depending on how many railroads were swallowed up
by the final railroad during its acquisition of other roads.
While its predecessors numbered more than 350 roadnames, the Burlington Northern Railroad
wasn't actually created until 1970 by the merger of four primary railroads - the CB&Q,
Northern Pacific, Great Northern, and the Spokane, Portland and Seattle. Since then,
two additional roadnames have been added to the series -
The Frisco and the Atchinson, Topeka & Santa Fe.

Westinghouse – Schnabel FlatCar (20-95155)
Schnabel cars are designed to carry very large loads.
These cars separate into two parts with the load becoming an integral part
of the car as it is attached back together for shipment.
There are over 50 different Schnabel Flatcars in service around the world.
In some Schnabel cars, the load and arms can be hydraulically shifted horizontally
or lifted vertically (in some cases as much as 4 feet!) in order
to clear fixed obstructions or equipment on an adjacent track.
This O-gauge model is approximately 26 inches in length.
The actual car can be over 100 feet in length!

the first transcontinental railroad was completed.

Spirit of Union Pacific SD70ACe Diesel & Caboose Set (30-20520-1)
On October 19, 2017, the Union Pacific Railroad revealed a commemorative locomotive
honoring the U.S. Armed Forces at San Antonio's Sunset Station. Only the 16th
commemorative locomotive presented in Union Pacific's 155-year history, UP No.
1943's arrival was welcomed by a group of veterans to kick off its Salute to the
Military Tour, a series of community displays across Union Pacific's network.
The locomotive's unique livery is based on the schemes and colors from each branch
of the U.S. Military and is a recognition on the railroad's part of the military
service of many Union Pacific employees. In fact, 17 percent of UP employees have
served in the military - one of the reasons the Union Pacific has been recognized
in the Best Companies for Veterans Top 10 list the last two years running.
