My wife inherited a nice pre-war Lionel O-Gauge collection from her dad. It has not been used in many years and a lot of the wiring needs to be replaced. It has all original paint and a nice patina. There are some scratches but nothing too bad. The engine is No 260E black with a No 260 T black Tender. We have cars 811, 812, 813, 814, 814R, 815, 816, 817, 820, and a Derrick car that doesn't have a number that I can find. All but two of these are in original boxes but some of the flaps are missing. There are two hand control switches, a Lionel Multivolt Transformer Type B, a No 66 Whistle Controller, a No 440C panel Board, a No 61 controlling Rheostat, a No 440N Signal Bridge, a No 438 Signal Tower, a Power Station (no number), a No 93 water tank, a No 271 Two Span Bridge, a No 720 Crossing (X track), a No 077 Crossing Gate, 21 pieces of straight track and 11 curved pieces.
There are a few other odd and ends but this list covers most of the major items.
So, what do we have? We plan to get it running but don't really know where to begin. Suggestions (other than selling it to one of you )!
