The Lionel Prewar (1930-32, best we can tell) 248 Electric Locomotive with (1926-30, best we can tell) 607 Pullman and 608 Observation Cars is a vintage O gauge model train set that replicates the iconic Pullman cars in red color. Made in the United States by the renowned toy and hobby brand Lionel, this electric locomotive features a 0-4-0 wheel configuration, perfect for collectors and model train enthusiasts. This nostalgic set captures the charm and detail of classic railroad travel, making it a coveted addition to any train collection. Dad took the engine to a train shop in Louisville, KY recently and it was in working order. A new bulb was put on. He is not sure about whether or not the light works in the Pullman car. These were used a lot when dad was a kid in 40s & early 50s. See pictures for details on what you get.
