America's Favorite Model Trains - Lionel

Many American children started out with model trains with a Lionel train set. A train looping around the base of the Christmas tree is a common occurrence over the years. This ritual has been passed down over many generations over the years. Are you one of the lucky ones? The Lionel Train company was established before Ford Motors!

Lionel makes trains in multiple scales, but they are best known for their 'O' scale trains. O scale is 1:48, which is twice as large as the other popular scale 'HO' (half of 'O'). Lionel O scale model railroad equipment has been produced with multiple levels of quality, from toy trains to special edition collectible. All Lionel O scale trains, modern to classic, will operate on any track with any power supplies and controllers.

The size of Lionel O gauge trains is well suited for the casual weekend layout where it's set up on the floor, perhaps on a carpet (which can give a rough time to smaller trains which are more sensitive to variations in track height). The bulk of these trains allows for handling by the kids with little concern for damage from an occasional bump. For the older modeler, these are easy to work with.

Stamped Steel Lionel Trains

Before World War 2, most replica model trains were made using stamped steel, and then plated with tin for rust prevention, and these older toys are referred to as "tin plate" trains. Lionel has manufactured modern replicas of those tin-plate trains. Lionel has named these "Lionel Classics", and have minor changes from the originals, making them easier to identify as reproductions.

Lionel O-Gauge Track

A characteristic of all Lionel train track is that it has three rails. The middle rail carries power for the train. Some modelers have objected to this 3 rail design, claiming it is in-accurate for modeling prototype railroads.

Lionel makes track curves in various radii ranging from 36" to 72." Be careful with your layout curves to avoid using too small a radii, longer locomotives and rolling stock requires larger radii. Having said that, an interesting layout with Lionel O gauge trains can be set up in a space as small as four by six feet.

O Gauge Accessories

Lionel produces a full range of accessories, from bridges to turntables, buildings, figures, vehicles, trees, etc., etc... Electrical, remote control of track signals, couplers and more complete the layout. Lionel truly makes everything you need to have a great O gauge model train railroad!

CD Case Digital Scale $24.99 The DJ's scale is designed for optimum performance from turntables (for DJ's and record enthusiasts). One of the basic procedures for set-up is calibration of vertical tracking force (VTF). A seemingly simple practice, most listeners mistakenly assume that a quick adjustment using graduations on the arm or a cheap balance beam scale is adequate. While those methods may be appropriate for entry-level systems, they have no place in a set-up regime for a high-end turntable. Use of the Compact Disc Scale Digital Stylus Force Gauge as part of set-up ensures a precisely calibrated VTF. It's even designed to look like part of a DJ's equipment to blend with the customer's lifestyle. Ships in assorted CD covers & Scale Styles. Key Benefits The JS-150V Are: 100g x 0.01g or 600g x 0.1g capacity scales 100g reads in g, ct, oz, and gn 600g reads in g, oz, dwt, and ozt Full Tare feature & Zero tracking Equipped with Dual Weightmeter Parts counting feature Digital auto calibration (weight not included) Slim CD case design Powered by 2 AAA batteries 20 year parts / 20 year labor warranty
