Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Model Train Price Check

I have a chance to buy a Lionel Train Set that I was told was from the 50's . It is not Mint , but very good . There is an Engine 1120 and 4 Cars ( 1002 , 1001T , 1007 , and 1005 . The Engine and Cars all have individual Boxes which are a little beat-up ( some broken flaps , etc. ) , but everything on the Boxes is readable. The tracks are well used and there is a Transformer , but no overall big Box. What would be a good buy Price ? TIA !

Prices could be all over the place. Its always about condition condition condition. Fleabay is a good gauge. Although you have to watch price over the course of a many months to get a good read. Having the boxes is good but again condition.

Have you seen it run?

The Lionel Columbia Type 2-4-2-Locomotive No. 1120 was issued as a modified Scout locomotive in 1950. Produced on a painted BLACK die-cast body with SILVER rubber-stamped number on the cab, but without the ornamental trim that was on the No. 1101. Equipped with a plastic motor, it came with a two position directional control, was not lighted, and there is no headlight lens. Issued with a No. 1001T sheet metal Scout tender equipped with Scout trucks.

A real nice set like yours with all the boxes just sold for $150 including shipping.

Good Luck.
