    Congratulations! This video showed up in my feed at random and was amazed to find out that your first set came from Southerland Station! I’m good friends with one of the owner’s daughters and we talk about the old store all the time. I bought a bunch of stuff from them over the years and was devastated when they decided to close. I’m just starting to work on a new layout myself. I’m looking forward to seeing your progress man!

  • @Sams_Trains
    @Sams_TrainsАй бұрын

    What a coincidence! I miss the old stores so much, especially their first location. I would love to talk to them again about how the store came to be, as I have no idea about the history or anything. I subscribed to you too, good luck with your layout! Do you have Facebook by chance?

    I can’t stand that original horn. My lionel UP SD40T-2s from 2008-ish have that horn, really crappy sounding horn. Now my MTH CSX “black hornets” SD40-2s sound so much better on every level. Yes i know different manufacturer but lionel really dropped the ball with the original horn. The horn on the new board you put in sounds much better.
