Lionel Prewar Tinplate 610 612 Red Pullman Passenger Cars Set of 3. All three cars show discoloration, possibly due to exposure to sunlight while on display for a number of years. Some of the red now appears faded or has changed to an orange color. One of the pullman cars is missing a coupler. Lights in the pullman cars are untested as they do not have bulbs. Observation car light is not working… Unsure if it needs a new bulb or new wiring. Cars have wear consistent with age and use, please review the photos closely for cosmetic condition.
