Part of my haul from the TTOS convention this week. When were these produced. I got the boxes, but they do not have model info etc.
thanks
Steve

Umm ... is this one of those newfangled politically-correct LGBT trains? 
Not that there's anything wrong with that ...
I believe that they were repainted by Frank Rash's "Roundhouse Trains" in the late '80s early '90s. Check with his son "Jack" Rash, who did most of the repainting.

Steve,
they made 12 sets of the 385e and 1767 series cars in pink with nickel trim (8 sets with brass trim). These were offered for sale around 1989 and used leftover stock from the early MTH (pre-Lionel Classics) product line. They sold for somewhere around $1025 when new.
Hope this helps.

Ron, as soon as I saw your post, I recalled the subject from a while back, thanks.
Arno, perfect info. I did not realize so few were made. Glad I was able to acquire a set.
Got this in the Saturday night auction. Very pleased with the price I paid.
Steve
