Great work! Oddly enough I was thinking of doing the same project after seeing it done in the display layout in Trains and Such in Calgary. How did you 3D print the handwritten Tim Horton's logo?
@Trainguy1969
Ай бұрын
@PB-fw2mx I too decided to create mine after seeing the one in Trains and Such. The signature is from the Tim Hortons sign on the Thingiverse 3D printing website. Unfortunately the words alone aren't there, so I took the sign they do have, separated out the signature and scaled it

These are exactly Athearn Overton coaches. The 109 is a single pack version with the item number RND16379. I have a set of Athearn Overton 4 car pack in Canadian National scheme with one coach numbered 108. The single pack 109 coach is now really rare on the market.

My wife and I traveled with Strates Shows for 2 years. Lived on and rode the train. Too bad that the railroads wanted to much money for them to keep it on the rails. They're a road show now, and leave alot behind in Winter Quarters in Florida. Talked to Jimmy and John Strates a couple of years ago, and they wanted us to come back. We said no.

I was given one of these trains as a Christmas gift back in the 70s when it first came out. I still have it and it is as it was back then. However I don't run it on my layout because the locomotive motor is not strong enough for a grade grater than 1%. I have considered replacing the motor but decided against that as it would destroy it as a collectable train set. Instead it is proudly displayed above my layout.

So true, I guess they felt using express gave it a sense of speed, it doesn't achieve 110 km/h is its top speed on the line. The top speed of the locomotive is 177km/h

Sure does, I loved seeing and riding the dayliner when I was a kid. Unfortunately, they stopped the service here in 1990 and have never replaced it.

Hello Trainguy 1969, the cable cars in San Francisco are great. I was in Frisco for several days and traveled many miles back and forth with the cable car. Years later I created a 3D San Francisco picture frame. The H0 Cable Cars has been converted and equipped with lights. The cable cars drive automatically in shuttle mode If you're interested here are mine KZitem clips of it Greetings Franz kzitem.info/news/bejne/ypWHr5d9kah5ZJgsi=opTgBs-D6GJ5otgV kzitem.info/news/bejne/rGOI05l6gXyJmXosi=G4rE86vThlseK07Y
