Don Hagar's presentation on the scale and semi-scale prewar Hudson is priceless. Are these two videos available on DVD?

I love my new LionChief Hudson. It cost $650 which compared to Hudsons of the 90’s is a bargain.

As much as I’m impressed with the Hudson, I’m really impressed with the 5B test set. Since I have postwar O gauge, I also have prewar O gauge along with Standard gauge and do all my own maintenance and repairs. I just lust for a 5B test set but they probably are more rare than the Hudson.

This video is awesome ! You have to disassemble one of these masterpieces from Mr. Cohen to really appreciate the talent Mr.Hagar displays in this video.He has certainly done many of these . If you can do this like he did ....without dropping a screw, losing a spring, a washer,forgetting the ladders ,mixing up the screws, fumbling with the leading truck and its washers and springs and screws and lockwasher, without crushing a wire, well you get the point. Thank you for taking the time to show in detail ,with valuable tips , how to disassemble and reassemble one of these almost 90 year old icons...

My uncle was a dealer service center. He had a couple of these if not more .. He sold 2 of them for 10,000 a piece. I'm glad I listened to this man he told me what to buy and when.

Great presentation! It brought back many memories of the Hudson that my uncle bought for me in the early 1960's for $15! It was the only Lionel loco that could simultaneously pull all 22 boxcars that I owned. I could also make the train longer but with even a 4' diameter circle, if you didn't place the heaviest cars in the front of the train, the cars would tip over on the curve! I have to thank my uncle in many ways, as selling the loco in the early 70's allowed me to get into O Scale 2 rail, that lead to the purchase of a Niagara, which I have to this day. My present project is a custom made 4-12-2, with all flanged drivers! I am estimating at least a 7' radius curve for this monster!

If you want to run your Hudson you can increase the cow catcher gap above the center rail by modifying a replacement cow catcher without modifying the frame. Suggest not modifying an original cow catcher, keep it orgional at all costs.

How about putting electrical tape under the bottom of the cow catcher to avoid it shorting on the center rail? I’m guessing that could bother some purists. I’m lucky enough to have seen a grey Hudson with round tender in November 2022. It was amongst a fascinating varied collection which all by itself could be a museum.

Terrific video. You are right, it took me 20 years to acquire my first prewar scale Hudson. Fortunately, I was able to acquire another a few months later. Pure luck. Mine are ‘37 and ‘39. Honestly, I like the ‘37 and think it’s superior to the ‘39. Thanks for posting. Very informative.
