Lionel Train Set
Lionel Dock Sider 1919
While looking in the basement, I noticed our Lionel Train Set and thought I would take a few photographs for my blog.
This set was purchased approximately 20 years ago and we generally put it up to run under our Christmas tree. We tried to add a new train car for several years in a row but it sort of fell out of favor and we haven’t set it up for many years.
This Lionel Train is a Dock Sider 1919 is a ready-to-run 0-27 gauge electric train set.
Lionel AEC Security Caboose with Light
This photograph shows a Lionel AEC Security Caboose with a large working light.
I noticed what looks to be white guns on the roof of the caboose.
Lionel – The Polar Express Hot Chocolate Car
Lionel – The Polar Express Hot Chocolate Car is probably my favorite piece. It came with a Polar Express ticket but I guess we must have tossed that out as I don’t see that in the box anymore. This car also lights up.
I guess I can never ride the Polar Express but I loved the book and movie!
This is Lionel’s Christmas Vat Car with coffee for the North Pole.
Just adorable!

The Box Car has a picture of an old time train going by a old white house.
It has metal wheels and axles.

Lionel Lines Derrick Car
This is a Lionel Lines Derrick Car.
You need to put this one together and it has a manually operated line.
K-Line Freight Car
This is probably the last car we purchased. We could no longer find Lionel Train Cars in our area, so we purchased a K-Line Car.
This one is a Budweiser Freight Car.
Most of the cars are marked from 8 to Adult. However, this Budweiser Freight Car is marked for Adults.
This Lionel train set was definitely made with quality in mind.
We enjoyed watching it run around the holiday tree. I had an uncle who enjoyed model trains. You’re never too old to enjoy this hobby.
One day perhaps we’ll set it up again.
