Don't be too hard on him for having a high regard for Lionel Trains. Text notes added to the video indicate he is learning.

The transfer station looks like it was modeled on the Michigan Central Central station in Detroit, pre the Ford Motor Co. restoration.

Oh, lordhavemercy. Flatcar rusted so bad...caboose shells with broken roof corners, rusted track, rusted bridge, one of the uber-rare, desirable, scarce two dome tank cars.

Opening lines, "I haven't looked n the box yet", third line "I already looked some of this stuff up on-line"

You notice when he pulls that super-rare steam engine out he holds his thumb over the cab (catalog) number? Unfortunately, it's a Scout, plastic clamshell motor block with rotating brush holder reversing, fibre "lockout" lever sticking through the top. Not worth brushing the dirt and mouse poo off.

Signal bridge rusted almost through. Covered hopper missing lids. More broken caboose bodies. Switchmans Shanty missing...everything. No tender for that rare Scout engine.
ZW that wet? Maybe if someone bakes the transformer and meggers it. Lots of dollar signs there.
Lots of time at a glass bead cabinet and multiple cans of paint.

Track.....trash right off.

Good deal!
