  I love that Lionel has done a throwback set like this, they definitely need to do more. A prewar based legacy steam engine would be awesome!!

  I started with pre and post war. They deserve more credit than they deserve. They look great on the shelf too!😊

  The hobo union approves of this video, and will be setting up a hobo camp.

  As a teenager who didn't grow up in the Golden age(in my opinion), I wish I could've seen that when it came out "Pre war" because it's gorgeous!!

  I am a young hobbyist, and I love prewar/prewar styled items just as much as anything else. Thanks for the awesome review!

  I love the throwback stuff because it is so nostalgic, even if I didn't grow up with the prewar stuff it reminds me of the whimsical world of "toy trains" versus the realistic world of models. I love both but sometimes I miss the fun of the "toys"

  Hey Eric,  You and I have the same feelings about O gauge trains. It's is nice to create realization but it is all to have fun.  Thank you for another great video.

  I really love this old tinplate style, it's interesting how even back in the day these were a mixture of realism and fantasy, the original tinplate S-2 was in production at a time when the real life S motor was in regular service but of course they went with these bright and shiny color schemes to be eye-catching to kids. I really do hope Lionel does more like this for future anniversary events, I would love to see a steamer in the old blue and brass of the original Blue Comet set, or a return of the Commodore Vanderbilt Hudsons.

  Gorgeous set. And that electric loco looks so pretty in green. <br>Love the infusion of the colors attributed to tinplate trains with modern scale ones.
