If my price seems high I want you to know that I usually put 6-10 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. I price them for what I have in them. I list them for what I have in them. This is a hobby to bring the oldies back to life since they are my age. I bought this engine because it looked great. Only problem was bad wheels, didn’t run & missing parts, It may have been restored sometime in the past or may be original paint paint. Colors are Lionel original colors. There are a few chips on cab and wear around the switching lever. Wheels are all good now. Motor was rewired and serviced and runs and switches great. Runs in both directions just fine. New coupler and a few brass trim parts. Most 250 cabs did not have the reversing switch slot on the top. This must be a later version when Lionel was changing to the 252. Probably used left over brass 250 parts. Great looking and runs great for 90+ years old. What you see you will receive. Thank you for looking. See pictures for this is the best description.
