That is really fantastic! Just a few hours put into it. If I had realized what it was I would have stopped by. (Nice Jag too!)
My only trains are some old "N" scale in a box in the basement but my brother has our dad's Lionel set from 1925, still in really good condition and runs real well too!

10 or more years ago, I restorewd my Dad's trains from the early 20's.
252 green electric, all the 4-wheel cars with latch couplers, found the restoration colors in rattle cans, gave them to one of my brothers for Christmas, then for several years after, found more vintage stuff to fit with that and gave him that.
We even had the old switches, all metal, no Bakelite.

My current "mental health" project for winter evenings is restoring old H0 stuff, some pre-war. Wooden framework, embossed cardstock sides, I'm even fitting them with Mantua couplers.
