Thank You.! 😊They’ve been keeping the channel very busy with a lot of affordable cool stuff this summer that’s for sure.! 👍🏻

I really like the jail as well.!👍🏻I’m waiting/hoping for it to hit stores so I can use my rebates.! Everyone seems to be changing their layouts lately.🤔

Thanks Jorge.! They’ve been keeping me busy this summer with week after week of cool affordable stuff. 👍🏻😊

@@richardnelson-ux1zz Thanks Richard.😊

I live close to the stores but have heard shipping costs make the products less budget friendly. Thanks for taking time to comment and for Watching.😊Mark

Absolutely 👍🏻 Couldn’t agree more.! The new pump house is fantastic.! 😊

Awesome 😎 It wouldn’t surprise me a bit that’s why Menards uses the name.!🧐Good to know.! Thanks 😊

Thank You.! 😊 I do try and order fast so I get my shipping box.! Planning, Filming and editing usually takes twice as long as Menards ship to the store.! Affordable cool stuff keeping me busy 👍🏻😊

Good News.! Heard good and bad about shipping so I'm really lucky to be able to use the Free ship to store option. Gosh yes the play on words is fantastic and creative.! Thanks IceMan nice hearibng from you and I can't wait to move and build a more permenent bigger layout.!😊Mark

Thanks John.! 👍🏻😊

Thanks Eric.! Nice that Menards offers vintage trucks for such a great price too.! They are all plastic but the detail is really nice for 6 bucks.!👍 Have a great weekend.! 😊Mark

@@markslioneltrains Can't beat that! They look great for $6! Thanks and you have a great weekend too!

I hear ya Ed.! Me too.! 😊Thanks👊

Thanks Mr.😎s.! 👍😊

Thanks Matt.! They have been keeping the channel very busy this summer.👍🏻😊

Thanks Joey.! You got that right with the lights and all.! The free truck got me.! 👍😊

Awesome.! the NYC FT was my first in 2003. Blown away to find the B unit sitting on a hobby shop shelf 20 years later. Did a video on them a few years ago when I converted it to TMCC. The AA set is new before I decided to convert the FT Set. Really like the lightning stripe and the History of NYC.😊

Thanks Hunter.! Fell for the free truck.! 👍🏻😊

@@markslioneltrains guess I could see that. Going to make another 4th of July video?

@@huntercoleman460 Absolutely 👍🏻 Started filming it a few weeks ago along with the Dec. 7th tribute as well. I had all the Military rolling stock out for my Memorial Day Video. I’m hoping to be moving again around the end of the year so I may not have a layout at the time? We will see.?🤔

Thanks Wayne.! You just may be right.! They do seem to Re purpose/imagine these building from time to time I've noticed. 👍😊

Thanks.! I need a bigger place.! 👍😊

Thanks Bob.! Everyone has been talking about them since Beta no number yet and they still chrome them out on 4.5 so a BIG IDK. Even if they didn't I probably would not buy one and just stick with Lionel. Can't wait to see how you do part 3.! 👍BIG😊

Thanks.! Very solid and heavy.! 😊

Thanks.! 👍😊

Absolutely 👍🏻 I almost bought the tractor repair. A Very cool die cast tractor collection I don’t have is why I’m now glad I waited for this one.👍🏻😊I would have loved to have the Lionel Hobby Shop if I could have afforded it at the time.! It was pretty expensive if I remember correctly. Very Cool though with all the little train sets running inside.! 👍🏻😊

Thanks Andrew.! Everything is well.! I'm just having fun so I really don't have any struggles but I appreciate your concernes.! It's all good Andrew. I'm pretty well adjusted and don't take all this to heart. I just stay grounded and do my thing regardless.! Have a great Holiday Weekend.! Mark

Thanks Bill.! Good to hear. One of the viewers received his Hershey Truck broken and was having trouble with customer service for the return. Thanks for the feedback.! 👍🏻😊

I ordered the cripple creek sand and gravel I ordered yesterday and was shipped yesterday st 5pm 🎉 very good customer service

@@richardnelson-ux1zz Excellent 👍🏻It’s well packed so keeping my 🤞🏻 for a smooth ship.! 😊Mark

@@markslioneltrains since I model a prosperous Penn Central my cutoff date is the bicentennial. I run Pennsylvania and New York Central sharknose diesels in combination as well as having passenger cars from both railroads in the same passenger train. I don't care for the engine sounds or crew talk 🦜 because when you run multiple trains the noise becomes cacophonous. Krewtok is a nun prototypical feature as well because you cannot hear them side the locomotive over the sound of the locomotive 🚂. Steam did not have radios they had hand signals and whistle talk. That is why the closer you got your house was to the railroad tracks that cheaper your rent was. Because all you heard was whistles all night and clanging of couplers and train noises but some people get used to that like the ones who live next to the elevated train in New York City 🏙️🌆. They get used to it after a while.

Your not the only one that wishes there was a menards in Florida

Agreed 👍🏻 I’m considering that in my next layout using variable DC power. get them down to around 3 Volts or so? Great Comment.! Thanks 😊

@markslioneltrains just how would you do that? Get a lower volt plug for the building? When you do it could you make a video

@@dannyjones2561 HO DC Transformer.

Thanks Arthur.!👍Have a great Holiday.!😊

I guess they had no room for him on this model. Good to hear about the shipping. Thanks Mark😊

You are right.!!!!! My guess is the Gold Line buildings are a different product line and don't include him? I have one other Gold Line building and it did not come with Jack either. Thanks for noticeing.! Mark

Excellent suggestion👍🏻Taylor’s Lionel Trains did something similar on top of a Mountain. I may still consider it when I have a more permanent layout if it’s still available.!😊Mark

@@markslioneltrains yeah, that thing was huge.... Taller then the statue of liberty by 60 feet.... that may be a WAY easier landmark for you to get Your bearings with if you ever do it
