224 Vintage SMOKING Lionel Locomotive Restored: All New Smoke Unit Parts, US $95.00, image 1
“This is an original vintage 224 shell. BUT I've changed out the broken steam chest for one from another engine. I've repaired the shorted motor field wire and added a regular Lionel smoke unit that is piston driven. The e-unit works great in both forward and reverse. It is a three position unit: forward - neutral - reverse. I've cleaned and polished the locomotive's and the tender's armatures, and dug out the debris between its stators. Now, both work exceptionally well.”
Country/Region of Manufacture:United States Fuel:Must use only liquid smoke Smoke Unit:Added Lionel Piston Type Unit Headlight:Old bulb unit replaced for a grain-of-wheat bulb E-Unit:Works well: forward - neutral - reverse Shell Alterations:Inside Boiler Front Rounded Slightly Tender Lights:2-Red lights in rear Steam Chest Alterations:Center Support Cut: 2-Holes Drilled UPC:Does not apply

The 224 shown above now has the following features.
  • I've added a Lionel regular smoke unit which uses a piston & cylinder to puff out smoke.
  • If you look closely in one of the photographs, you can actually see the smoke crank.
  • I've polished the armature stators, removed debris between them.
  • I've cleaned the e-unit so that it works very well.
  • There are new green prisms in its marker lights.
  • The steam chest is from another locomotive because the original had part of its cowcatcher broken off.
  • I've wire-brushed and cleaned the connecting rods and valve gear.
  • One of the valve gears is missing BUT it has been ordered and will be added when it arrives.
  • Using a special procedure, I've removed many nicks, gouges, and worn spots from the original paint.
  • This 224 is lubricated and ready to operate on your layout.
The tender shown above has these features.
  • 1.  An all metal air whistle that blows very easily.
  • 2. It has a middle pickup wheel on each truck.
  • 4.  In the tender's rear, there are now 2-red lights.
  • 5.  There is also a white worklight to brighten the area where a fireman would shovel coal.
  • 6.  I've removed all caked on debris from the tender's wheels.

Dodge Avenger

The 2011 Dodge Avenger has allegedly been reengineered from the ground up. But in terms of styling, you’d be hard pressed to spot the difference. Dodge says that it has imparted a plethora of changes to the mid-sized sedan, with the exterior gaining cleaner and more aggressive lines.

Volvo V60 Polestar production now underway

Tue, 24 Jun 2014

The Volvo V60 Polestar is now rolling off Volvo’s production line Last month Volvo revealed that the V60 Polestar would be a limited edition run of just 750 cars for the world, but that 125 of those will be heading for the UK – the largest market allocation of any country – and will cost £49,775. And now, seven months after Volvo confirmed the V60 Polestar for production, the first cars are heading off the production line at Volvo’s plant in Torslanda and heading off to their new owners. Although not as powerful as we’d expected, the V60 Polestar still offers an appealing performance package, with 345 bhp and 369lb/ft of torque delivering 0-62mph in an impressive 6.0 seconds.
