SUNOCO


SINGLE DOME TANK CAR


S.U.N.X. 6555


 


 ALL METAL!!

 

WHERE ELSE WILL YOU FIND ONE LIKE THIS???


The Sunoco Single Dome Tank Car No. 6555 is an all metal car that was available in 1949 and 1950. It consisted of a die-cast frame without steps, sheet-metal tank, and the lettering is by decals, on the left "SUNOCO" diamond, and on the right side "S.U.N.X. 6555." Cars whose decals have not discolored with age are highly valued today. This car came with a brake stand, metal handrails, ladders, and placards that are usually located on the ends, however, there are no steps at the corners of the chassis.



NO. 2955
MADE IN U.S. OF AMERICA!
 

This is a Variation B: Sunoco decal without "GAS" and "OILS" inside the YELLOW diamond logo, and a large lettered "S.U.N.X." decal.

Condition: The owner of this item had a Lionel collection that consisted mainly of "Lionel New, Mint in box" pieces. He did, for whatever reason, have a few "Pre-Owned" pieces. This is one of them. Perhaps he could not find a new one when he was looking to buy these. Still, when he got it home, all he did was take a picture of it and put it away, never to be used again. Since it was used, I can't test it and offering it "AS IS" NO REFUNDS OR RETURNS. This item has no paperwork and no original box. The box provided is for shipping and storage purposes.

HE DIDN'T EVEN HAVE A LAYOUT TO RUN HIS TRAINS!!! The original owner tried to limit his collection to Lionel Limited Editions and unique pieces. He would purchase a piece, bring it home, take it out of its box and set it on a 3 ft. section of track. Along with a small transformer to test electronics, that's all he had!! Then he would take pictures of his purchases and then put them in their boxes, and THEY NEVER LEFT THEIR BOX AGAIN!! NEVER RUN ON RAILS!!!!

Now.. If YOU have any other information or data on this piece and would like to share it, I'd be more than willing to pass it on to any possible NEW OWNER. Please feel free to contact me.

 

That's about all I can tell you about this UNIQUE MODEL RAILROADING collectible.

Mechanical device disclaimer: Every mechanical device has a certain life span. The day it leaves the factory, it becomes one day closer to its end date. When I find these devices, I plug them in, wind them up or put in a battery. If they buzz, whirr or seem like they're doing what they are supposed to be doing, I keep them for auction. At that point in time, I have NO IDEA of how old or how much use they have incurred. They may last a lifetime or fail the next time they are turned on. Therefore, I sell these as "Decorative or Ornamental purposes" only, not functional. Which may be referred to as "AS IS".

Note: On some items, UPC symbols may have been removed for rebate purposes.

Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility.
Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.

Other information a seller may wish to include:
These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up – do not confuse them for additional shipping charges.

We do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts" - US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior.
