The LCCA brings the excitement and adventure of the doodlebug back with the introduction of doodlebugs heralded for the Alaska Railroad and in continuing livery for the LCCA of the Texas Special. 

For experienced railroad buffs, there is no need to define a doodlebug as a self-contained rail passenger car with its own engine. It is a railroad’s equivalent to a street trolley, a single self-powered unit carrying passengers and freight. These strange creatures of the rails played an important role in transportation history, keeping rail passenger service alive in underserved communities for years.

NOTICE - The Alaska version of the Doodlebug sold out as of 1/12/2025

The 2025 Convention car has been announced as an animated giraffe car. This car has not been done in 20 years and this LCCA version has a new designed giraffe figure.  This classic Stock Car is on its way to the zoo! On the way, the giraffe raises his head through the roof and enjoys the view. As the stock car approaches the tell-tales, the giraffe ducks to stay out of harm's way. Add this favorite to your Postwar collection!

This Lionel-produced car, a boat carrier, comes with four (4) multicolored boats and is another in the LCCA Union Pacific series.  This yellow and red car has silver sprung trucks, has the UP full herald, and proudly carries the American Flag.
