I am definitely not a regular toy train kinda person, but my neighbor’s late husband was. He got this set when he was just over 10 years old (not sure how old he was when he passed just this year, but his wife is about 60, herself … so just … yeah … it’s an old ahem classic … set), and now, it needs to be passed on. Only problem is … in order to get it to someone new … we need to find out how much this set is worth. And I can’t find any information or pricing lists for old Lionel sets.
To start … let me show you what we’ve got :
Tracks - The actual section set up is made up of four curves, and four straight (just to give you an idea of size). Each extra set is put into fives. There are approximately 45 straight rails, and approximately 30 curves, not counting miscellaneous parts that are in the picture as well.
Consoles - These are the consoles that I’ve found in the set. And I’m pretty sure that “thing” in the center is the 1948 ZW Transformer. See? I’ve done SOME research. =D
Bridge - This is the bridge and the pieces I have for it. Biiiiiiig bridge … if I’m guessing correctly. If I knew how to set it up, I’d do it. cause I’m sure this whole thing would be gorgeous completly set up. But … I don’t know how. So … I arranged it all pretty-like for you. You can see how many piece I have for this monster of a train set.
Train - I’m sorry I couldn’t get a better picture of the train(s). My camera’s battery was dieing and this was all I could get before it just said that it’d had enough. But these are all of the in tact cars I have. I’ll try and list the ones I’ve got until I can get individua
