Now available for sale is a gorgeous, all-original 1872 General style steam locomotive -- with the red headlight lantern cover -- and tender. Both the steamer and tender have been thoroughly cleaned, serviced, tested and operate perfectly including the e-unit, functional headlight, three position e-unit and smokestack. Additionally, all boiler support braces for the handrail are complete and not cracked nor repaired -- plus both units are clean and free of rust and oxidation. Lastly, the external colors are vibrant, not faded and the side lettering is crisp and complete. Both of these items are in fantastic condition -- almost condition 8 -- and would look great on a layout of in a display case.

Also included with this sale is the original box for the steam locomotive as well as instruction. The box is solid, free of writing and stains, but is missing the front perorated panel as well as the orange sleeve going around the box. The instructions are clean and dated 1959.

    Lionel 1872

    Posted by Ematt on Mar 7th 2024

    Product arrived well packed and on time but not as described. TCA 7 should be undamaged and without rust or major blemishes. This locomotive had a rusty frame, several rusty detail pieces, worn valve gear, a cracked and glued on headlight, and other imperfections that would make it at best a TCA 5. I am keeping the locomotive because I can restore it but this is not what I paid for.
