"A two-year-old child was transported to the hospital where he passed away. A second child received non-life threatening injuries and was also transported to the hospital for care." Authorities from the Pinal County Sheriff officials say they were called at approximately 5 p.m. Bel Air Road outside of Casa Grande, Arizona, according to the police statement detailing the incident. No children were transported to the hospital after the crash, officials said. Metro officials said the incident happened when the USC shuttle bus crossed into the path of a southbound Metro E Line train.
PREMIER PASSENGER CARS
The light rail line runs from East Los Angeles to downtown Santa Monica mostly along streets, and not all of the crossings have gates. Santa Fe Depot also hosts the Southern California Railroad Days festival each May. The event features rail equipment exhibits, model trains, memorabilia, food, and music. On weekends, you can ride streetcars, trains, and trolleys on the museum railway system, and all the exhibit buildings are open. On weekdays, the grounds are open for free but many buildings are closed.
MTH ELECTRIC TRAINS
They produced a full range of 'O' gauge trains including starter sets and transformers, 'O-27', and 'O' scale locomotives, rolling stock and accessories. These products are complemented by a fast-growing line of 1/32 Scale G gauge offerings. Tinplate Standard gauge, S gauge and HO products were also manufactured. By 2005 M.T.H. had pretty much captured the market for contemporary Standard gauge tinplate trains and accessories. They reproduced all the popular Lionel pre-war classics, including the #300 Hellgate Bridge and #804 Power Station. They also created the modern era Lionel Standard gauge Commodore Vanderbilt and Hiawatha sets.

Among those affected, officials say two people were transported to a local hospital in serious condition, 16 people were transported in fair condition and at least 37 individuals were treated and released on scene. The Calico Railroad is an original Denver and Rio Grande Narrow Gauge train from the early 1900s with several car configurations that has been an attraction at Knott’s since 1952. You're sure to be held up on your journey by the Ghost Town bandits who raid every loop around the park. Select MTH product has a lot of miles left in their offerings. Over the years I have been involved in multiple situations when the principle was going to retire and sell their business only to be unable to find a buyer for the entire operation. As a subcontractor I went from working with the original owner to working with the new owner who in several cases purchased a restructured business.
RAILKING POWER PACKS
I always though Lionel's parts ordering page was pretty decent, they seem to have a good system in place (except for follow-up order confirmations for some odd reason). Will be interesting to see what platform the MTH parts business is built on. If you want to check out other brands as well, feel free to head to our entire model train collection.

On December 14, 2006, the judgment was overturned on appeal, citing legal mistakes in the jury trial, and a new trial ordered. A settlement between the 2 companies was reached and approved by the court in 2008. At this point, approximately 20% of the O Gauge tooling portfolio, including the Atlas purchases, have been sold to date. The as-of-now unnamed buyers of the other O Gauge tooling will be revealed later this Summer. LA's Union Station, built in 1939, continues to be the hub of train travel in Los Angeles. Amtrak, Metrolink commuter trains, and the MTA Metro subway all have their hubs here.
“Metro offers its sympathy to those injured in the accident,” Sotero said in an email. Genesis Hernandez was transferring from a Metro bus to catch the E Line to Santa Monica, where she attends college when “all of a sudden I just saw a bunch of ambulances going by,” she recalled. Two victims were hospitalized with serious injuries and 16 others were transported in fair condition, the department said.
M.T.H. S Gauge items, including our S Gauge S-Trax track components are identified with item numbers that begin with "35". The Santa Fe Depot, built in 1930, also known as the Fullerton Train Depot, has been completely restored from the exterior to the lunch counter. It's not a museum, but there are two vintage cabooses parked at the station. A Metrolink train ride from Union Station to Fullerton Depot takes about 35 minutes and costs about $16 round trip.
The museum was founded in 1966 by Irene Lewis, in honor of her late husband Martin, with whom she built a company to manufacture miniature steam-operated locomotives. Several of these are on display.The tiny town of Lomita is south of Torrance, about 20 minutes from LAX or Long Beach, or half hour from Downtown LA. When Mike Wolf and Lionel parted ways after the Lionel Classics era, there was left over stock and parts. Most was sold at a discount price through retailers, but some were repainted by Frank Rash of Frank's Roundhouse. Items included the #1115 station, #440 Signal Bridge and control panel, the 'O' gauge #350 Hiawatha passenger set, the 'O' gauge #44 freight set, and a custom decorated 1989 Season's Greeting box car in Standard gauge. Also issued from these parts were a #390E loco, a #200 trolley with #201 trailer, a #126 station, a #384 loco, a #385 loco, and #392 loco.
DCS is a system for controlling your entire layout — multiple Proto-Sound 2.0 and 3.0-equipped engines, switches, and accessories — from one or more wireless handheld controllers. DCS is compatible with all M.T.H.® Proto-Sound® 2.0- or 3.0- equipped locomotives, regardless of scale. "Metro offers its sympathies to those injured during this accident," the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority said in a statement Tuesday. Healthy competition and choices for the consumers (us) will result in a more robust marketplace. Realtrax is simply the easiest O Gauge track system ever manufactured. Featuring durable metal rails strong enough to stand on and a built-in roadbed for a realistic appearance ensures that a RealTrax layout will last for years while sporting a realistic appearance not found in other O Gauge track systems.
News reports from the fall of 2004 estimated M.T.H.'s annual sales at closer to $30 million. As a privately held company, M.T.H. does not officially release sales figures. In its reorganization plan, Lionel estimated M.T.H.'s annual revenue at about $30 million and stated that M.T.H. was the second-largest manufacturer of 'O' gauge trains in terms of market share. The third spin-off, to be managed by a few long-time M.T.H. employees will be operating alonside the parts company in the smaller Elkridge, Maryland facility. The train company will continue to operate as M.T.H. Electric Trains - marketing and producing new model train products - after many discussions with various companies to purchase the entire portfolio of M.T.H. tooling were unsuccessful.
