I know I have more than these but can't seem to find the photos.

 

This is not a coin, but is a train. I got this personally in 1976 for the USA bicentennial when I was 13. I took this picture a couple of years back. This patch is MS 69 or 70! Absolutely looks like the day it was stitched 46 years ago.

I live in the village of rainhill scene of the 1829 locomotive trials which gave birth to the passenger railways Alderney produced a £5 coin to commemorate the event.

 

I have no coins with a train on them but I do have several CSA Notes with the old locomotives. I have others but I only have photos of this 1 which has the reverse with the Interest stamps showing that the interest was paid. It was also signed by William Hoge. He has ties to Andersonville.

 

Very nice notes. I have found it a bit ironic that the South had so many trains depicted on their notes when a lack of having them was one of their biggest downfalls.

 

wow, very nice dwhiz. I'm going to go and try to find them too. I think I will start a Canadian train collection.

Is there a list somewhere that shows all the Canadian train coin series?

 

@Dearborn
I wish, none that I know of, but maybe someone else knows.

 

Here is a “LUCKY PIECE” I found in my basement. It shows the 1934 UNION PACIFIC streamliner, the M-10000 car design which operated as the City of Salina from January, 1935 until December 1941 between Kansas City, Missouri and Salina, Kansas. It was delivered on February 12, 1934, and was sent on a publicity tour across the US, during which about a million people toured it and its stops became local media sensations. The obverse says the LUCKY PIECE was made of the aluminum from the Aluminum Co. of America used in the UP train built by Pullman.

 

I have 2 coins from Norfolk Southern I got them at a show of the Altoona,Pa shops No pics. Nice coins maybe would sell if some one was interested.
