POSTWAR LIONEL 2056 DIE CAST HUDSON STEAM LOCOMOTIVE & 2046W WHISTLE TENDER

LOT DESCRIPTION: As the title says this lot consists of a Postwar Lionel 2056, 4-6-4, Die Cast Hudson Steam Locomotive with the correct matching 2046W Tender that was made for only one year in 1952. The locomotive has a operating headlight and smoke unit and the tender has the all metal bar end trucks with magnetic coupler and it also has a whistle. Both pieces are all original Post War Lionel.

DESCRIPTION OF CONDITION: The locomotive and tender are both in great shape. The loco casting is perfect, no breaks, cracks or chips. Both classification lights (often broken off) are perfect as are the front cowcatcher steps. No rust or missing parts, great color, numbers nice and clear. The tender too looks fine, no cracks, breaks or chips on the shell, lettering crisp and clear, and coupler is in great shape, both rear steps are there and they are perfect. No real issues here at all with this set. Again, a great looking set that IMHO I would rate as in C-7, excellent condition but look at the pictures and you be the judge for the pictures are an important part of the description and say more than my words ever can..

WORKING CONDITION: I have cleaned, lubed and tested the locomotive and it runs and reverses just fine and the e-unit cycles perfectly and the whistle in the tender also works fine as does the smoke unit.
