A discussion/comparison & train run of several examples of the classic Electro Motive Division (EMD) F3 Santa Fe War Bonnet diesel locomotive models produced by the Lionel company in 1950, and the blended F3/F7 variations introduced by Marx Toys between 1950 and 1954 moulded in lithographed tin (21) and molded plastic (1095) and the recently released 2023 Menards variation (3945).
My apologies for confusing in the video regarding the EMD F3 with the later generation EMD F7 on the Original 1950 Lionel 2343.
Hope you will continue to enjoy, like, comment and subscribe!

I love these Super Chief Santa Fe. F-7s!

@sarahendrix6842 Месяц назад

Most of these companies are very good a depicting the early E and F diesels

Santa Fe F 3 and both the F 7 and FP 7 are the most iconic locomotives ever, recognized around the world. 🚂

Nice Marx, Lionel and Menards comparison. The Marx 1095 is an E7 diesel. Thanks!

@@johnknippenberg-LandmarkYards Thanks! The Marx 21 has really nice lithography but seems somewhat underpowered compared to the plastic molded Marx 1095 which seems to pull much better and can handle longer heavier consists. Aside from the somewhat inaccurate paint details the Menards entries perform and pull up to 12 (most I can fit on my 4x8 ovals) cars in a realistic prototypical way. I’m very pleased with them at that price point and am considering another, possibly the recent Pennsylvania. I’d really like to see some more East Coast road names and perhaps some other diesels as well. Thanks! 🚂😉

I love the Santa Fes! The Lionel 2333 was produced in 1948 and 1949. The 2343 was made from 1950-1952. The 2353 from 1953-55, and the 2383 from 1958-66. I do not have the 2383, but I have the others. Menard's also put out a Bluebonnet version last year.

The Lionel is an F-3, the Menard is an FP-7, and the Marx is a curious mixture. The side grills say FT, but the roof vents and trucks say something else.

The 1st rail car behind the engine looks rather big like a G scale compared to everything else.😊 nice engine coverage. A lot of sounds in Menards while the other’s are nice and quiet.

@haydenrichardp3712 15 дней назад

The Marx also appears to have three axle trucks.

Lionel F7 = 1946 EMD F7 + 1949 hmmm

@jefflewis6331 Месяц назад

32 Seconds in and already he doesn't know what he's talking about. It is an F-3, not an F-7!

@MHRRR54 Месяц назад

Thanks for your correction. Indeed the Lionel was a representation of the F3 not the F7. My apologies for the confusion. Regardless they are all beautiful reproductions of these classic diesel locomotives.
