Post pictures of some of your stuff. Layout pictures would be awesome.
1930's Ives "transition" O gauge set (Ives train but the cars and locomotive have Lionel bodies). Ives went bankrupt and Lionel bought Ives. Lionel put Ives plates on Lionel products for a couple of years.

Toccata for Toy Trains (1957)
quote:
Toccata for Toy Trains is a 1957 short film by Charles and Ray Eames, one of several films (including Powers of Ten, made many years later) the husband-and-wife design team made during their career.
quote:
The film features mostly antique toy trains moving within fanciful settings to a toccata. Other antique toys, such as dolls (representing passengers and townspeople), automobiles and horse-drawn carriages are featured.
quote:
Most of the toys come from a mix of museum and private collections, including that of the Museum of the City of New York, and apparently date from before the 1920s. The film is shot from a toy's-eye-view, as if the viewer is following the journey of trains from two cities, beginning with the busy activity of the departure train station and surrounding downtown neighborhood, traveling across the countryside, and ending with trains pulling into the arrival station.

Know nothing about them but there is a legit museum in the Glenwood Springs, CO train station.

I have an old 2035 at my office but that's the only one I have here. The rest of the HUGE arse collection including the entire New In Box set of the 1976 Freedom Train is at my house:

My FIL was big into this stuff. Of course he worked on a railroad his whole life.
He had a 400 sq ft garage that was 3/4 filled by his train layout. Even had tracks mounted on the wall around the entire circumference of the garage with removable sections across the doors.

I love model trains.
If they didn't have model trains, they never would have got the idea for the big trains.

I have a fondness for them but haven't gotten around to exploring it except for the set (very basic) that goes with the Christmas village display that I put up for the holidays. I've been wanting to replace that with a nicer set.

New Orleans Train Garden at City Park
11 minute video
quote:
The Historic New Orleans Train Garden is one of the park’s hidden gems, tucked away in a vibrant, lush corner of the Botanical Garden. The train garden features typical New Orleans home and building architecture made with botanical materials, and replicas of streetcars and trains that wind around the track. Visitors walk along a pathway representing the water surrounding the city and “stops” along the track give brief histories of the neighborhoods and the train and streetcar lines that served them. As visitors walk they overlook 1300 feet of track carrying streetcars and trains like those that traveled the city in the late 1800s to the early 1900s, at 1/22 of their actual size.
