I've Been Working on the Railroad (In China with Warren) Folk Art Railroad Men



Another pair of honest. hard working guys (see post of yesterday) but today our worker class members are tin articulated railroad men. Bonus below is Warren Buffet singing the song to the Chinese.

Looks like Warren is getting better along with the rest of the world than some Republicans I know. Railroads are good here too...one can move tons freight with a few gallons of gas and without the diesel pollution. Warren seems to have the right idea.

  1. Nice figures. It looks like it has wheels too? Do the figures propel the whole thing?

    1. Hi Joey. It is actually a toy train piece, and I am guessing one of the earliest. It has no markings or manufacturer. I'm guessing 1900, as the first electric train sets were 1890-1900.
