You are looking at a neat Lionel item--this is very special set of 6464 boxcars. These are great--they are the best of both worlds. You get a great new boxcar with the LOOK and numbering of the old postwar collectible ones. I guess you could say this was Postwar Celebration before there was such a thing.
This is the second edition Lionel put out. This set has some of the neatest original cars reproduced.
The set includes
- 6-19258 Rock Island 6464
- 6-19259 Western Pacific blue feather version
- 6-19260 Western Pacific yellow feather version 6464-100
Some features include:
- With set carton
- 6464 series
- sliding doors,
- die-cast metal sprung trucks,
- magnetic couplers,
- metal frames,
- door guides,
- brake wheels
- and metal wheels and axles.
CONDITION: C-8++. Cars all look like new to new. Interior boxes are all crisp. Outer set box is crisp but has some fade on one end. Pictures show it all.
