1950-51 Lionel Freight Train Set No. 1471WS - VG/EX, OBs

Note: This train set is illustrated on pages 14-15 in the Lionel 1950 and 1951 consumer catalogs.  To complete this set, you will need the 3461 operating log dump car and the 6465 Sunoco tank car - See last photo.

-- 2035 2-6-4 Die-cast steam engine - VG+.  Serviced.  Tested.  Runs well F-N-R (3 position e-unit).  Powerful motor.  MAGNE-TRACTION for greater pulling power and traction on curves.  Headlight.  Synchronized smoke.  Eccentric drive rods; valve gear assemblies.  Handrails.  Ornamental bell.   Custom boiler front - Two translucent green running lights instead of marker ears with green jewels.   (No more worry about breaking off markers).    Easy access to headlight bulb.   Original Lionel smoke service sticker on inside roof of cab.  Very reliable and durable locomotive.  This is one of Lionel's best postwar 027/O gauge engines.  They don't make them like this anymore!  (1950-51).  No box.

THIS IS A REALLY, REALLY NICE TRAIN SET THAT NEEDS TO BE PLAYED WITH.  COLLECTOR QUALITY!

NOTE: PURCHASING COMPLETE SETS SAVES SHIPPING COSTS.

Disclaimer:  I do not consider myself an expert on Lionel trains, especially regarding grading, reproductions,  and variations.  There are many more knowledgeable members of the TCA.  My used Lionel trains are always sold "as is," because I cannot guarantee a complete and accurate description to everyone's satisfaction.  That's impossible considering the age and complexity of the items and the diversity of the ebay membership.  Please look at the photos carefully before bidding.

Bid with confidence, because there is a return policy for these items.  However, the buyer pays the cost of return shipping.

Shipping charge includes packaging, handling and USPS priority mail to a destination in the U.S.  Shipping is combined on multiple auctions whenever possible.  Shipping from west coast.

Thanks for LQQking and enjoy your eBay shopping!
