Happy Easter
Lionel in 1935 created the original " Chickmobile" ...for Peter Rabbit ...unfortunately this example is missing the front basket ..sorry.
If you are looking for a good reliable windup train ....buy a Marx , Hafner, Karl Bub, Ives, Bing ....anything but Lionel . ( your experience may differ) ...wind the spring more than 1 1/2 turns , the spring locks up the free wheel ...what did you want for $1.00? ..something that worked ?
