LIONEL TRAIN STEAM ENGINE 226E & 2226W TENDER SET W/ OB

I HAVESOME SCARCE LIONEL PRE WAR ENGINES, CARS, AND ACCESSORIES I WILL BE LISTING, SO CONTINUE TO CHECK MY LISTINGS FOR SOME COLLECTIBLE TO ADD TO YOUR COLLECTION.

THIS IS AN AWESOME MONSTER  LIONEL 226E STEAM ENGINE, WITH ITS MATCHING 2226W TENDER SET. I WAS TOLD IT HAD BEEN RUNNING ABOUT 1 YEAR AGO, AND THATS ALL I KNOW ABOUT IT. THIS 226E WAS THE BIGGEST DIECAST STEAMER LIONEL MADE EXCEPT FOR THE HUDSON. IT HAS A 2-6-2 WHEEL ARRANGEMENT, AND IS STILL IN PRETTY GOOD CONDITION FOR ITS AGE. IT HAS A LITTLE  WEAR AROUND THE BOTTOM OF COW PUSHER, BUT NO CRACKS. IT SAYS LIONEL LINES 226E VERY CLEAR ON BOTH SIDES.  THERE IS HARDLY ANY PAINT LOSS ALONG BOTH SIDES. IT HAS SHINY RAILS, AND 1 HAS A SMALL BEND IN IT, THAT MAYBE CAN BE STRAIGHTENED OUT.  THERE IS A BULB STILL INSIDE THE BOILER, BUT THE BOILER DOOR IS MISSING BOTH GREEN GEMS ON TOP.  

THE TENDER IS STILL VERY GOOD, IT HAS ALL 4 STEPS IN THE CORNERS, WIRES STILL CONNECTED, AND A CLEAN BOTTOM BASE. ITS MARKED 2226W ON THE BOTTOM VERY CLEAR.LIONEL LINES IS A LITTLE WORN ON THE SIDES, BUT YOU CAN STILL READ IT. IT HAS ALL 6 TRUCK SETS STILL IN GOOD CONDITION.

THE BOXES ARE BOTH POOR, NEITHER ONE HAS ANY END FLAPS, BUT DOES STILL HAVE AN INSERTS.   ITS A NICE PRE WAR OLDIE TO ADD TO A COLLECTION.  THANKS FOR LOOKING.
