Here is a cleaner version of the Lionel #212 Standard Gauge gondola. Lionel produced this number starting in 1926.
This is the harder to find medium green version. You do not see this one as often as the more common maroon. Comes in its original box which is really nice shape as you can see--it even has the original Lionel orange and black tape across the top.
There were a few different variations of the 212. These look great in a long line--on the layout!!!
Did you know that there are a few versions of this car:
This one:
- Is the Green body version
- Has BLACK PRINT on the plates
- Nickel plates
- Nickle journals
- Nickel Brakewheels
- Variation G in your Greenberg
Do you have this particular version? Be sure you have them all!
Sure to be an attention-getter in the prewar collection.
CONDITION: C-7. Really clean gondola with a good patina although it does have scratches and nicks as pictured. There is a scratch on each side, but still a very nice specimen of a hard to find car. Rubs in black base paint. Nice nickel plates with black printing. Inside of gondola shows some wear. Pictures show it all.
