Why is it that all of the companies that give good customer service, backup their product with parts supplies and generally try to give their customers the best customer experience all go by the wayside and companies that don't give a crap about you as a customer continue to live on? Why is that?

I love MTH and consider them to have been essential for Lionel to improve its product line.

God, I remember getting this tape as a reward from, of all people, my piano teacher, who was also a train nut. He would regularly give me his old Lionel and MTH catalogues and I remember spending many happy hours as a kid on the bus looking and day-dreaming of them

Sad seeing MTH being broken up. They made the hobby what it is today. All gauges across the board. I wish Mike would have just named a successor to keep the business going:

What a Time Capsule!!! They just don’t make product videos like they used to.

I grew up watching this on my vhs player. Even today almost 23 years later I was excited to watch it. Until my vhs player decided to rip the tape out of the cassette. I'm looking at buying a new tape but honestly I might just burn this to a DVD. Thank you for preserving this classic

MTH changed model trains as much as electricity. Thank you MTH.

I think I remember this was the video on my old MTH VHS that I have put away and it also had the instructional starter set segment on it. I watched it in my early childhood and it was several years before I got into O gauge in 2005. I used to rewind that tape at one point to make the trains go back and forth like I was “controlling them” and I then found myself later running newer MTH Proto 2/3 stuff with the DCS. Good memories!

"WOW" I thought MTH went out of business. Very informative and well worth watching, if your into model trains! The photo shots , voice, everything was top notch. Whats happening with MTH now, in 2022?

Nice to see Olgebay Parks layout host MTH trains for this video. The layout is now gone. So sad.

It is such a shame when a toy train company has the founder retire a Tennessee end of the company especially when you enjoyed their products. Bob Weaver made trains in America cheaper than Lionel 4mth we charged for something made in China and people in America don't work for $2 an hour. I like Mike's train house as an alternative because I do not like to have all of the electronics that they have it today in trains. With Lionel you pay more for the name than what you pay for the locomotive just like Harley-Davidson tax you pay for the name on the gas tank or you pay for the name on The Box. Of course just like Lionel pretty soon Harley will just be importing stuff made in China and will not be building anything here. I bought a bunch of MTH subway car sets and I bought the bag of seated people. I called up empty H and I told them if they molded the figures in flesh colored plastic it would make it so much easier to paint cuz then you have to pay the clothes. They said it was a good suggestion I never knew if they took it up. It cost me $169 for my first B tradehouse subway car set and it cost me $200 for commuters to fill it up. Those sets are largely responsible for me going from ho 20 gauge. Of course with the subway car Schatz I could rationalize the third rail and all my electric I run pantographs down like ep 5 do in third rail territory anyway. Of course if I was modeling the Santa Fe or the Union Pacific then I would be just stuck with the third-rail.
