Pere Marquette 1225 to Polar Express 1225

 

The Polar Express is one of the classic Christmas movies directed by Robert Zemeckis. The steam locomotive in the movie is based on the Pere Marquette 1225 which is still in working operation in the state of Michigan. Earlier, I made a purchase of the Pere Marquette 1225 at the Great Train Show in Grayslake, IL and what better way to get it at the perfect time before the Christmas/holiday season arrives. I made the Polar Express logo and used invisible tape to hold the logo in place on the tender. The Pere Marquette 1225 will be holding the Polar Express colors till the end of the holiday season.

PROJECT COMPLETED: Metra Operation North Pole Christmas Train

Metra Operation North Pole Christmas Train joined the N Scale Railroad family last weekend to be part of the holiday season. Three Bi-Level Metra cars including the Cab Car have been decorated in Christmas colors as part of the Christmas season. The locomotive is a Metra F40PH 125 Welcome to the N Scale family!

NEW N Scale Locomotive!

Pere Marquette 1225 joins the N Scale Railroad family. She was purchased at the Great Train Show on November 19, 2016. She runs great and hopes to be running on the tracks during the holiday season since she was the star in the movie, The Polar Express. Welcome to the family, Pere Marquette 1225!

N Scale Railroad UPDATE

Sorry I haven't been posting in a while. It's not been easy keeping up with A-Train4014 Productions and College. Since I'm away from college, I've not been busy with my N Scale trains. Also, it's been a while since I've been updating so I added upcoming projects such as the Metra Operation North Pole, Union Pacific Big Boy 4014, Nickel Plate Road 765, Amtrak Heritage Units, Union Pacific Heritage Units, and Norfolk Southern Heritage Units. It's gonna be long road ahead but I'm likely going to be purchasing the Metra Operation North Pole prior to Christmas so hard to believe, but it will likely be my only N Scale train purchase since one year ago when I purchased Amtrak 42 "Veterans Unit" on the Amtrak Official Store Online. Keep up with us as projects are likely to be added later in the year.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to everyone!
