A nice get well gift | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Lately I have been feeling ill once again from the effects of 9/11. The breathing trouble came back( it comes and goes). As a get well gift, my mother found and bought this for me. Not only was this something I was looking for for a long time, but it was also sealed in the box. This is the Lionel uncataloged Black Commodore Vanderbilt #18063. It came with a letter from Lionel stating all the new features and how it was actually made and decorated. Fewer then 600 were made. Also came with 2 extra drive wheels with rubber bands and a scale pilot trucks. It an outstanding runner pulling my 6 Lionel NYC Heavyweights with no problems, and the sounds are awesome!! Thankfully, I am also feeling 100% as well. Thanks mom!
