i recently purchased a used 0-6-0 saddle tank locomotive at a train show. i took it home, oiled it, and got it running. I noticed that on the bottom it says: Revell INC. 1957. It has a metal body and brass wheels. The revell i know of is the one that makes model cars and planes, and a few non-powered locomotive models. there is some damage: brass wire on left side of tank missing and a bit of the left bumper
can anyone give me an estimated value of this, and some information on the manufacture?
Go on Ebay, look at model trains, HO and where it asks for “Search” Type in Revell and see if this locomotive is being offered. I remember the loco you are talking about. 1957 sounds about right. I have a Varney Docksider, which was a very popular loco back then. However, they don’t sell for as much money as you would like. I might be interested, when you find out what you want, email me. My email address is below.
i’ll find out what is is worth than i will think about selling it. i’m still not sure if i should keep it or sell it. if i plan on selling it i will e-mail you.
