My acquiring a fixer-upper Clementine loco off of eBay has piqued my interest in the train set from whence it originated. I've searched for photos of the set in its entirety and only found a few, and no luck at all on finding videos. And so I make this post, in the hopes of seeing more.

I've already seen the catalog photo. That one turned up easily. But that's pretty much it. I was hoping some people here had the fortune of owning the set themselves, and photos of their own to share.

Almost as pleasant as 99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall.
For the "gold" I had the great fortune of receiving a packet of "Gold Gum" from my lovely daughter for Christmas. It is spot on perfect. Serendipity strikes again.

Why a fantasy diesel and not a fantasy old-time loco?

Well, you could probably find them at a craft store.
I was thinking an old-time loco because it would go so nicely with the aesthetics of the mine building and the ore car

Hey Micro, you ever think about trading off that Clemintine Mine with the both cars? I might have something you might like of greater value...
No, I won't even ask about your Varney Aerotrain. I know, I wouldn't be able to pry it out of your cold, lifeless hands.
