With alittle modification, your PRR cars from the initial post would match the old Philadelphia subway cars - https://www.pinterest.com/pin/431571576766955811/

Good job, now throw some glow in the dark stars up.

That's really nice, do you happen to know the part # for the bogie frames?

That's about what I've seen it going for lately, unfortunately.

I'd snag it in a heartbeat.

I think it'd be great to create a sticky with this type of information. A while back I needed to buy wheels for a train and didn't know that they actually had a part number corresponding to the entire set needed for a train's wheelbase.

I have one and love it, just wondering if anyone has heard how sales have been so far...

That's interesting, I've never heard them called that. Taking the El is like riding a roller coaster sometimes. In some areas you really get thrown around a bit. Now how about the new silverliner cars for the regional rail.

I bricklinked the holiday train (10173). Based on another user, I placed all the power functions in the passenger car. There's still space for passengers and it's not very noticeable.

Not sure if this is allowed, but this topic at another forum looks pretty cool: http://www.bricksetforum.com/discussion/comment/167110/#Comment_167110

I'm curious if anyone has examples of layouts that combine both city and modular buildings. I'm about to build my first layout and have the newer modular buildings (fire brigade on up) and several city sets. As the buildings are typically different heights and styles I wonder if they'd look odd together. Or maybe an old city section of town and a new section?

Thanks, I never heard of that site before. Giving me some great ideas.

I supported as well, even if it doesn't hit the number you can still bricklink it easy enough if you really want to build it.

Just picked up mine a couple hours ago just outside of Philadelphia. I'm going to rename it the Philadelphia Flyer, after my favorite hockey team (their colors are black and orange also). One thing I noticed, and appreciated, is the size of the box is smaller but feels full. Doesn't seem like it'll be a huge box with a few bags sliding out.
