Looks like MTH will have some Christmas cars coming this year. One is a gondola with two Christmas trees with leds. If they continue what they did in O GAUGE it will be painted in three different gondola colors
, red,green, white. They have done these in other scales with one or two different cars per year.
They will make up a nice Christmas train to run on your layout or
a Christmas garden.

I had the first few Micro-Trains releases of N sclae holiday cars.
I kept it up for a few years after switching to HO, then lost interest.
That would probably be almost a thirty car train now. I think 1991 was the first year.

Hmm a bit too early to be talking about christmas trains. I will take a look in about 7 months.
MTH is also making a Trump train in O gauge, how about one in HO.

Theme-based trains (Christmas, sports teams, etc.) have zero appeal to me - whatever the scale. But I get it that others do enjoy them and that’s fine.
Our “Christmas” train is comprised of actual prototype locomotives & rolling stock from favorite states or regions my wife and I have either visited, lived in, or vacationed at. It’s a lotta fun to watch them circle the tree and reminisce about the times we had in each of those locations.
BLI has Kennedy and Reagan covered. Maybe #45 will be soon?

Kadee has offered Christmas cars in HO.
Good Luck, Ed

Prototypically it ought to be painted gold.
Running and ducking
Wait what? LOL a Trump train, thats kinda weird. But yes it should all be gold painted. Trump likes everything in gold, as seen in his New York apartment.
Personally I hate anything in gold color, its ugly. Unless of course I have some gold bars, then it would be ok.
