Long time ago Lionel came out with a 3 pce kit /coaling station which was very nice and very affordable however, today that coaling tower retails for a whopping 199.00 in Canada. I've only ever once located the kit so? are there any left ?

The first one was a kit. The current one is ready built but each item is a separate sale. Kits pop up once in a while but it may be a long wait.
The current one is also illuminated, and has a bit more detail.
I have seen it on eBay more than once.....not at that astronomical price, but still not
cheap for what is a plastic kit from some years ago....I found one in a junk box, dirt
cheap, missing other than the main tower, and it was missing parts, but for the price
I used a box pictured in an auction and fabricated the parts. There appears to be a
demand for it....and I have seen it on layouts pictured on these threads. Patience should net you one.
As previously noted, not cheap and a lot of bidders, but, like the one I found, no office
or unloading shed with it......which is how I found mine...
