Rather enjoy this LL Circus Wagon. These pieces tend to be rather fragile, and to find
one in decent shape is a pleasure. This survivor makes its way past the Plasticville Nuclear
Power plant.

Life like maid a bunch of those cars. The calliope was really nice. Many were steam powered. Those were the ones that sounded the best. The ones using compressed air didn't sound as good.
** Check out the Wikipedia link for a picture of one:

** Well hello again. How are you this week? I hope fine! This week is a car I found at the Mother Seaton high School train show last Sunday.
This week is 1957 work caboose in gray with black lettering. It is a Lionel car #0819 from their first catalog (I think, most likely). I am probably wrong. This is the 1957 Lionel-Rivarossi Catalog for Lionel didn't make their own HO trains yet. It is lettered for the Pennsylvania Railroad #6475 with the Lionel L in a circle, marking it as a Lionel car, and in great condition. All original sprung trucks with Rivarossi talgo attachment coupler arm for X2F style couplers. Somewhere I have the crane car that matchers. If I find it i'll post them on set of the week.

One cannot have enough Jello. Is that the coveted Sanka to the left of it?
