Large Lionel Postwar parts collection | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

gravytrainOGR Forum Member

Hello, recently my friends father passed away at 95 . He repaired Lionel Trains for over 60 yrs out of his house as a hobby . He left a massive amount of train parts mostly postwar Lionel. We are from the cleveland area and trying to figure out the best way to sell these parts . My friend and his sister are trying to clean out the house but are overwhelmed with the amount of parts .They don’t use computers so I’m trying to help them out . If anyone is interested in these please send me a message and thanks. Tom

If you have a lot of parts, I would try contacting the parts dealers. They may be interested in the whole lot. Jeff Kane - Train Tender, The Train Doctor, Trainz. These are the first three that come to mind for part dealers.

Jeff Kane at the Train Tender, his website is ttender.com and his phone number is on there. Try him, if they are all original parts, they can probably get a pretty penny.
