Hopper set

MonkiejohnsonOGR Forum Member

Hello everyone,
It's been a while since I've posted on the forums. I have a friend who recently came pain a plethora of trains at a relatives house and he is asking for my help selling them. He described a set he has to me and I was stumped. He is going to be sending me pics and road numbers soon but I figured I'd try and get a little info first. He said he has a set with a matching loco and caboose and 17 sequentially numbered hopper cars. I didn't know lionel ever made a set with that many sequential hoppers. If anyone knows anything please let me know. I will try to get pics an road numbers soon.

Thanks,
David

A set of matching engine and caboose would be easy to find in O gauge. But a set of sequentially numbered hoppers with that many has to be a custom paint or numbering job by somebody. Lionel or MTH offered a six car hopper set but nothing that high that I know of.

David: Do you know for sure that it's Lionel? If it is Lionel, I would agree with Lee that it’s a custom numbering job. If it’s not Lionel, it may not even be O Gauge.
