MEGA Lot Of Vintage eBay Locomotives - Lets See What Works!
232,667
Published 2023-08-21
According to the seller very few of these locomotives were supposed to be in working order so it took some testing to figure out the condition of everything. Fortunately despite some of them being in disrepair, most seem to be powered models.
I hope fix to up and get as many back on track as possible. The majority showed signs of being repairable so the potential is certainly there.

1 word. Merch. Make merch, we'll buy your t-shirts, we all need t-shirts all the time. You need to diversify your income portfolio. There's no shame in hawkin shirts, it's better than some of the other stuff folks do for money. Just sayin, you have the fans, we like you, it's a 2 way street and it's all good.

I always enjoy an SMT Mainline unboxing of random locos. I actually kind of envy Harrison a little bit because he manages to get the kind of old models that I would like to own.

Thank you for getting me back into old model trains. I've never had a proper layout or the space for one, but your videos have gotten me into repairing old locomotives, especially those old Varney steam engines. I absolutely love the look and feel of the old die cast metal, the simple design of the drive, as well as the incredibly intricate valve gear. I've gone from none to 2 of their locomotives within a month with a third one on it's way! I always look forward to your repair videos, especially when you're working on those old die cast ones. Keep up the good work!

The front of the boiler is the smokebox door. Also, that CN FM C-Liner with all wheel drive is a later AHM model. And the life like high hood is a GP38-2

SMT unboxings are always the best! Keep up the good content SMT!

I've watched your overhaul videos for awhile now, I recently just bought an old Santa Fe GP7 from Athearn at my local hobby store, and thanks to you, watching how you put such effort into fixing them up. I was able to restore a non-running loco and make it run!

A CNW F3/F7 and some FM C-liners in the same video? Perfect

Hey Harrison, you got some nice vintage locomotives in that lot. I had quite a few of those same locomotives when I was a teenager many many moons ago. I sold them all to a collector over 30 years ago and used the money to invest in some blue box Athearn diesels. 3 Family Lines SD 40-2s (2 powered and a dummy) and 4 Santa Fe GP35s (2 powered and 2 dummies) both sets with matching bay window cabooses. I eventually sold them to a different collector and bought some Broadway Limited SD40-2 locomotives in Burlington Northern with DCC and Sound with a matching caboose of course. That was about 18 years ago. I now have 22 DCC Sound equipped locomotives and 8 DCC only locomotives all in Santa Fe paint schemes with 12 matching cabooses. I don't run trains without cabooses. And I have 165 freight cars and the complete Super Chief passenger train. I'm currently in the process of designing a layout for a 14 x14 spare bedroom. Sorry, I know this is a long comment. I really enjoy watching your videos, especially the unboxings and when you work on the locomotives and bring them back to life.
