Unless otherwise specified, nothing has been tested for operation. I simply don’t have the time to go through and test and service all these trains. Here is a nice looking Lionel Prewar O Gauge passenger train set from the 1930’s, consisting of a 238E Pennsylvania Torpedo steam locomotive and 3 of the 600, 601, 602 passenger cars. Ran when I tested it. Has been in storage, should be cleaned and lubed before using much. Like any 85 plus year old used toy, there are some nicks, scratches, and cosmetic issues. Still makes nice appearance with good colors and graphics. Pictures are the description. These are old and will often need tinkering and TLC. With by a child. I only sell to the USA. Accordingly, I will need a physical address, NOT a PO Box. PLEASE NOTE: The nature of my work and lifestyle means I’m often gone on small trips away from home. Thanks for understanding on this.
