Lionel City

Readers of this blog will by now realise that I have a definite enthusiasm for Toy Tain Accessories, and their use on layouts, and so I'm excited to report the imminent arrival of another Tinplate Station!!  For me this one- the Lionel #134 Lionel City Station- is perhaps the most iconic of all the stations that Lionel produced.  The one that I've been able to purchase is a Lionel Corporation 'reproduction' of the 1930's original, like most of the items that I like to buy.






I'm not sure which of the three layouts in the Trainbarn that this station will go on, but it's suitable for any of them.  Eventually, I'm sure, it will find a permanent place on the Standard Gauge layout, serving as the main station for the innermost loop of track, which will represent a commuter/trolley line.  I hope you find it as charming as I do!!
