I attended a train show a few weeks ago at the local fair grounds. It was quite a bit bigger than I expected and covered a plethora of scales and items. That included postwar Lionel. I have some interest in postwar items but I was mostly looking at them to compare. I have a 6-8-6 turbine that belonged to my grandpa. It is numbered 2020, with a puffing smoke unit (not bulb) and no fancy extra running gear. I have a few freight cars with it but I also have these passenger cars. I would describe them as almost tinplate in appearance and I think they say "Pullman" on them. They're like a red-brown color.
I didn't see any of these items there. I saw quite a few turbines but they were 671 and 681. No 2020s. I also saw quite a few of these passenger cars but they were green. I'm sorry I don't have pictures but they're currently packed up tightly at my parents' house for safe keeping while my remodel rampage continues. These items are beyond value to me but I would like to know if they're very uncommon or not. Anybody have any idea?
