Re: It's Official: No More Flyer
American Flyer dealers probably have models to sell. My source has been Nicolas Smith Trains. Today its web site shows U36C and ES44AC diesel engines

Re: Unique Southern Pacific AC-5 Cab Forward 4-8-8-2 for sale
David... It looks more like a later AC to me but I'd need to see more to be certain of the model type. Does it have a square tender or Vanderbilt? Class AC-5 & 6 had the Vandys. Class AC 7's and later

Re: Amity Star Southern Railway "Big John" 100 ton Covered Hopper

Re: It's Official: No More Flyer
Not everything Lionel/Flyer made was toylike.? Pacific's, Mikado's, Challengers, Y3's, U33/36C's, SD70's and ES44's come to mind.? While some aren't easily converted to scale wheels, they are far
