Does anyone have a source for Lionel repro boxes or used old boxes? I need a few prewar and a few postwar. Total, 9 or 10. I tried Railroad Express, they were a total nightmare to deal with, it took me a month to get my money back after they stiffed me on an order, and East Coast Train Parts only has the 1960’s era “window” type boxes.

I don’t know their name but there’s an ebay seller who claims to have Lionel “approved” repro boxes.
Good luck.

There is a retailer at the York shows that sells repro boxes. I don’t know his name or location as I had a shop pick them up for me a few years ago, but I did see them at the last show. I’m heading there next week and will see if I can get their info - maybe someone else who is attending can get the info as well, or already knows who I am referencing.
Speaking of which I need to take an inventory of the Post War items and pick up a couple boxes. I think I need a corral car box, a searchlight car box, coal dump car box, and maybe a couple others… hmmm…
If you could get their name, or phone #, or web site of something, that’d be great. There’s also supposed to be a guy there with the old style Lionel wrapping paper, if you see him, let me know. Thanks,
