Mi-Loco NYC Hudson passenger set 1935

Postby Carey Williams » Fri Aug 12, 2022 11:29 am

Hello all

Chicago World's Fair 1933-4 was the major jumping off point for model trains ...with millions viewing the large commercial O scale layouts.
1934 Lionel displays their City of Portland streamliner along side the Union Pacific prototype and Lee B Green has a display of his TruScale Mi-Loco 17/64ths scale O gauge trains.
Mi-Loco offered easy to build kits or RTR models at much lower prices than custom builders . Mi-Loco pieces were 17/64th scale which is the "true scale " for O gauge track .

To see video of train running please see link

engine was a factory display model ...at least two are known like this ...cars original paint, trucks equalized wheels ..dated 5-35

Cheers Carey

Hello Bob ..... when logging in it would not accept my password ...so requested a reset on the password .....and it worked !!

I had requested a reset several times prior but no results this time it worked .......however the response email for resetting did go to my spam folder ...

so if you are not able to sign in ...ask for a password reset ...but look perhaps in spam folder for reply ... good luck
Cheers Carey

You post reminded me that I have a 1935 Mi-Loco catalog. Lee B. Greene's ego shure is all too apparent! :roll:
