743No surviving photos of this Christmas but my father told me that he
744first bought
745me this train set when I was 2 years old in 1950. I have very early
746memories of this train running around a loop of track under the
747Christmas tree.<br>

782This was not a catalogued set and was most likely just put together by

790The <a href="http://www.postwarlionel.com/cgi-bin/postwar?ITEM=2046">2046</a>

873Though you can't tell from this Christmas 1956 photo, I just received a
874Lionel 3356 Horse Car and Corral and a 3662 Operating Milk Car.<br>
875
876
877
878
879

881The Horse car was new for 1956, the Milk car had been cataloged since

986Sometime in the late 1950's (probably 1957 or 1958), my father
987accidently stepped on, and
988broke, some gift that I had received. I don't recall what the gift was
989- some kind of toy.
990I
991guess he wanted to make it up to me so he took me to a hardware
992store in Monaca, PA. It might have
993been Balamut Electric Shop at 1213 Pennsylvania Ave in Monaca. This
994must
995have been summer time, maybe after my birthday. Anyway the store just
996had leftover toy train inventory - stuff no one wanted.<br>

1024I ended up with two<a href="http://www.davestrains.com/ap2421set.html"> Lionel
10252429 Livingston Passenger Cars</a> - I was happy to get
1026them as they were the only passenger cars I ever had as a child.<br>

1040As it turns out, the 2429 were not popular cars, they were only
1041cataloged for 2 years&nbsp;1952 &amp; 1953 and today are two of
1042the most valuable passenger cars
1043that I own.
1044And of course, this gift was way better than whatever it was my dad
1045stepped
1046on! I've since bought the other three cars in this series, the 2421
1047Maplewood Pullman, the 2422 Chatham Pullman and the 2423 Hillside
1048Observation Car.<br>

1069Also around the late 50's I received the one gift that every
1070red-blooded American boy wanted. A toy that could lead to unimaginable
1071mayhem, death and destruction. I don't mean a "<span style="font-style: italic;" class="st">An official
1072Red Ryder Carbine-Action 200-Shot Range Model Air Rifle With a Compass
1073in the Stock</span>" .... but rather a Lionel 090 Crossing track.

1089Ballast Tamper.
1090My first motorized units after my 2046 steam engine from my original
1091set. They made perfect test subjects for the cross track. I remember
1092setting up the track on our dining room floor and testing over and over
1093to see how close the two could come at the cross track without crashing
1094into each other. Of course, I had many, many failures....<br>

1721
1722
1723I realized that the 1992 layout was too "complicated". Too many levels
1724and too many accessories. And too hard for me to reach all the track. I
1725tore it town and restarted. The new layout was one level, with two lift
1726out bridges. Nothing was more than 2 feet from an aisle.<br>

1950For Christmas 1958, he first bought me a
1951gas powered airplane. The kind where you hold a string control line and
1952the airplane flies in a circle around you. We spent most of
1953Christmas day trying to get the engine to run. It never did. We never
1954flew it.&nbsp;

1957My dad captured the event on 8mm film - here is a screen capture from the film:<br>

2466In April of 2013, I got up into the attic of my home from the 1960's. I
2467found this Lionel-Porter Chemistry Set. I had totally forgotten that I
2468had it. It has to have been up in the attic since the middle 1960's.<br>

2482From <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lionel_Corporation">Wikipedia</a>:
2483&nbsp;"As part of this diversification, Lionel formed a
2484relationship with the <a style="" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porter_Chemical_Company" title="Porter Chemical Company">Porter Chemical Company</a>,
2485whose owner Harold M. Porter was a member of the Board of Directors of
2486Lionel. Lionel began making a variety of scientifically oriented,
2487hands-on educational toys, designated "Lionel-Porter." The product
2488line, cataloged from 1961 to 1968, included <i>Chemcraft</i>
2489chemistry sets, <i>Microcraft</i> microscope sets, <i>Biocraft</i>
2490biology sets, and sets teaching about mineralogy, physics, geology,
2491mathematics, and industrial science, along with a junior line of tool
