There’s something special about trains that carry more than passengers—they carry memories, history, and craftsmanship from another era. Whether it’s a prewar Lionel, a beautifully aged brass steamer, or a rare coach from a long-defunct line, these pieces connect us to the golden age of rail.
So I’m curious—what’s the crown jewel of your historical or collectible collection?
Where did you find it?
Do you know its backstory or historical significance?
Have you restored or preserved it, or do you prefer the patina of time?
