Hi Guys:

Well week #2 for the CotW, and last week went pretty well so here we go again.

This is a Lionel Crane car and while not intensley valuable teh Lionel HO stuff it functions pretty well so I like it. Needs painting though, just haven't decided how yet.

Anyway here she is!



So guys what do you have? I hope next week to get some batteries for my camera and I'll have some new LotW's to post!

Cheers,
Gareth

Whoa Ray,
I just bought the same crane Saturday.
Mine was made by Liliput,and cost me 5.00.
Can you show a picture of how the main hook and chain are routed?
Mine was hanging loose and is routed diferently from yours.

Carl,
I will have to hunt it down so I can take a photo .
It isn't in the cabnet where I thought it was. (could be out in the workshop)
I haven't seen to many of these, in fact only 1 other than mine.

Sweet one, Ray. Mine is your basic Tyco Amtrak model, a box lot freebie that I gave new couplers and Kadee wheelsets. I painted and weathered it to look like a second hand unit that my road did a patch and paint on before sending it out.

Hi All,

Nice hooks! Mine is a Bachmann. I got it in a huge box of trains I got Christmas before last. This year for Christmas one of the things I got was the Tyco Santa Fe crane and tender in the original box.


Thanks for looking.
Mike
