Why are these so expensive? They look nice, but?

Supply and demand.
Ever try to buy an Atlas "Container" recently?
I predict the NEW Lionel Auto Rack cars will follow suit even at $149.99 list.
That is one of the most wanted husky cars atm..
Anything Maersk carries some kind of premium.

Yeah, I have to agree, I thinks it's primarily because it's Maersk. I paid $169.00 for this car back in 2009 but so many times anything with Maersk the price continues to go up.
Everyone have a great weekend.

i believe this car is an addition to the Lionel Maersk set. LOCOMOTION
looks like a bidding war between ywo bidders.

It's not just the road name. Lionel Husky Stacks do seem to hold their value.
As someone said supply & demand. Lionel recently released Locos like the AC6000 in Santa Fe livery. So people (including me) were after the husky stacks in Santa Fe colours to match.
They are really nice though the containers are plastic but the car itself is a big lump of metal.
