I just saw on E bay a 253 set with some extra cars. There is a 814r with a red roof. It shows wear and only shows metal in the scratches.
I was not sure if I could show the picture here but it is under 253 and the picture shows a set box.
If anyone looks and knows if this is legitimate, it would be fun to know.
Thanks
Harold

Not legit. The 814r reefer never came with a red roof. Could be an orange roof that was changed out from a box car.

That's a repainted gondola.
Lionel made 813 stock, 814 box car and matching 2813,2814 cars in cream and maroon. Maroon is redish.

A repainted roof. Clueless seller asking 3k for what is more like a 300 dollar set. The loco has the e stamped on the door which may be scarce, but not 3 grand worth.

The roof looks maroon.
