Myflyertrains.net (also .org & .com) Now totally redesigned and better than ever, this is the site to go to for the best selection of Gilbert American Flyer Catalogs. Extensive photo albums that are a real treat to browse. It also features sections of Kris repaints and All Aboard Layouts. A recent feature is kitbashing projects in "Stumpy's Station." |
The only comprehensive internet source of information on the HO trains manufactured by the A.C. Gilbert Co. A great site, but I might be prejudiced because I'm the one who runs it. |
This site provides comprehensive coverage of both Gilbert and Lionel production from 1946 to present. Look for the menu at the bottom of the pages. |
This site showcases Carl's fantastic S Gauge layout and also provides lots of technical information on both old and new flyer, including the TMCC operating system. |
This is the grand daddy of all the S sites you find on the web. You can find a lot of good information on this site. The link above will take you to the Navigation page, the best place to start. |
This website by the National Association of S Gaugers is extremely well done and provides a lot of information for both scale modelers and Flyer fans. Best of all, it is always very up to date. |
Though mostly 3 rail oriented, there is a wealth of information on toy trains generally at this site, including videos and photos of the National Toy Train Museum. |
The best part of this site is the full online access to the Train Collectors Quarterly, the best source of real scholarship on toy trains. You have to be a member though. |
Not a lot of train related information here, but good coverage of the many other products of the Gilbert Co., especially Erector sets |
