THIS PAIR OF BOXCARS ARE FROM MY FATHERS LIFELONG TRAIN COLLECTION.

THEY HAVE BEEN PACKED AWAY, AND STORED IN HIS TRAIN ROOM FOR OVER FORTY YEARS.

PRIOR TO THAT, THEY HAD BEEN PUT TO THE TEST , AND PUT AWAY BROKEN!

I DO NOT KNOW THE ORIGINS OF THESE CARS. THEY SEEM TO ME TO BE KIT BUILT;  BY A VERY CRAFTY POSTWAR HOBBYIST.

THEY ARE ALL METAL, EXCEPT FOR THEIR BASES; WHICH ARE MADE OF WOOD.

IT LOOKS LIKE THE U.P. CAR HAS LIONEL TRUCKS AND WHEELS.

THE U.P. CAR:

THE LITTLE NAIL/PIN HOLDING THE TOP DOOR RAIL IS LOST; AND THE DOOR HAS COME OFF.  THE DOOR IS INCLUDED. 

DOORS DO SLIDE OPEN. 

THE NAIL/PINS FOR THE LADDER ON THE RIGHT SIDE ARE LOST; AND WILL NEED REATTACHMENT. IT IS MISSING THE STEP ON THAT LADDER AS WELL.

THE REAR COUPLER IS BROKEN, AND MISSING.

OTHERWISE IT IS ALL VERY NICE,......WITH A GREAT PATINA THAT LETS YOU KNOW IT HAS SEEN SOME MILES!.....AND IS READY FOR MORE!!

THE SWIFT CAR:

HAS NO TRUCKS THEY HAVE BROKEN OFF, AND ARE MISSING.

MISSING BRAKE WHEEL.

IT IS DENT FREE;  WITH CRISP, CLEAN LETTERING.

DOORS DO NOT OPEN.

THERE ARE SOME LIGHT SCRATCHES TO THE SIDES.

A LITTLE TIME AT THE HOBBY BENCH WILL REAP GREAT REWARDS FOR THE ENGINEER NEEDING A LITTLE MORE ROLLING STOCK!!

POSTWAR QUALITY BOXCARS ; WORTH PUTTING A LITTLE  DIAGNOSIS-REPAIR-FRUSTRATION INTO!!

WIN THIS BID.

I WILL SELL AND SHIP WORLDWIDE.

ALL SHIPMENTS OUTSIDE OF THE U.S.A. MUST USE THE GLOBAL SHIPPING PROGRAM.

I WILL SHIP ECONOMICALLY TO YOU.
