It was meant to be their value train sets, and I believe they mostly contracted Marx for their manufacturing.

Oh yeah! Sears wanted to have a line of model trains of their own in their catalogs. If memory serves, They needed a brand name for the line and looked into trademarks they already owned. Sears owned Allstate, and they thought Allstate sounded kinda railroady.

OMG HAPPY BIRTHDAAAYYY

got to test run my Vermont Railway 44 tonner on my dads layout today. Rapido did a great job with these little guys!

44 tons of cuteness

THAT IS AN INSANE WAY TO RUN A RAILROAD!! this is why we need to talk more about trains in the 19th century. The operations they had when we were still just kinda figuring things out was so fascinating and often low key dangerous. We are missing out!

An amazing 1948 letter by pioneering model railroad Gordon Varney:

Reminds me! Probably my favorite chapter in the book "Steelways of New England" is called "Operation through trial and Error" And it talks about the early operations on New England railroads before 1900, and damn, that was an appropriate title to a chapter.

gift i did a week ago for @featherhors.bsky.social <3 <3 <3

I've started collecting this stuff a couple years ago and i love it! Its so fun to look through!

OH
that makes SO much more sens!

When it comes to old Railroad operations, and keeping trains from wrecking into each other, often mentioned are the importance of the telegraph, pocket watches, and signals. But I don’t think we highlight enough just how much the system relied on TONS of paper.

I think Boston but I could be wrong. This was taken at a train museum at Gorham NH. They had a few mile posts from different roads. The Gorham station itself is a Grand Trunk station.

These are so CUTE!!

Stardust wants to be painted like one of your French girls, grinning smugly. He is a bat pony wearing a bow, a choker, a crop top, and striped socks on each leg. He is also wearing eyeshadow and sparkly makeup on his cheeks.
