1954 A.C. Gilbert American Flyer - Engine 293 - Retrospective with BW Video - Be a kid Again!

Short video highlighting the joys of a 1954 A.C. Gilbert American Flyer - Engine Number 293 - Retrospective. We used a ~70 year old working set, to create the video. Take a step back in time to relive the joys of model trains in the 1950's. There is a short intro, then watch what it felt like to ride an S Gauge Gilbert steam locomotive. Be a kid again! Keep your eye out, there's lots of motion going on! Can you count how many vehicles move?
