If my price seems high I want you to know that I usually put 6-14 hours of labor restoring it to the condition it is at now. If you want one cheaper you may have to repair it and its costly. This is a RED Comet Lionel 260E set with 260 tender with 4 wheel truck. I bought it and went over it by servicing it and replacing what was needed. It has a newer e-nit that works great Forward. The problem now is parts are getting almost impossible to find and cost are outrages. I know almost every dealer and no one has many if any more prewar tin plate parts. This one had a cracked frame, I finally found a reproduction frame a dealer had, die cast and bought it. Even the new parts do not always fit. I have to modify, re drill and tap holes. File and grind them to fit. That the reason that in the next 4-6 month when I complete everything I have I will not be doing any more large Lionel prewar tin plate engines. Now it looks good and runs great. Lionel did make a Red Comet very rare. I had several over the years restored. This one was red but I think someone had tried to paint it and did a bad job. So I decided to do a complete restoration. No it’s not original but if you want a restore one that has all the parts and work this is it. SEE IT ALSO RUNNING. What you see you will receive. It runs in forward and reverse. Read my feed backs. Price seams high but most of it is parts and many hours. Slowly trying to sell everything in the next few years. Restored about 50 of these large prewar engines. Will sell what it left done and finish what I have left. And not do anymore. Getting too old plus health problems. Trains runs great and all lights work. See last pictures of it running. Antique Vintage Lionel 80+ years old made to be like new but not quite. Great Lionel Vintage/Antique set. It is a 80 year old. Refurbish/restored Lionel toy train. I tested it and ran great forward and reverse. So ask questions and look at the pictures. See pictures for this is the best description. I will answer the best I can. Track Page Views With. Auctiva’s FREE Counter.
