On Friday, while shopping at an alternative train shop, I noticed these stacked on the floor beside the used engines and stock I like to go through. I didn't know American Flyer did a modular railroad, but apparently yes. Pretty cool! Plug and play the old fashioned way.

So they did sell these things decently.

Man that's cool. How much were they asking? That's one of those things I wouldn't go looking for, but if I happened to come across them, well...

Never heard of it, never imagined that concept. Wow. The tag line, "years of fun for everyone." THAT was a different era, different concept. Thanks for the great video, Microbusss.
