When I recently purchased a "Lionel Classics" Fireball Express Set (new and unused), one of the engine flags was missing.

The current MTH Tinplate Traditions white flags are mounted flush with the open top of the slotted shaft which is also OPEN and they are finished in a bright white enamel.

The flag that came with the set is a slightly off-white (almost cream color), and is mounted about 1/16" down from the ROUNDED-OFF shaft top.

NOTE: I have only seen this type of flag on the "Lionel Classics" 1-390E and 2-390E locos.

Hennings  was able to supply me with a close second: MEW cream flags with the metal shaft ends bent inward above the flag: close, but NO cigar!

Does anyone on our forum have the ones I need - prefer two if possible so the color matches.

THANKS in advance!
