My problem is verifying the engine. This information was on the tag when I bought it.
Is it  3323? A you tube video had one but it was not the bell version, Another video has a bell. but had a side switch and was listed as a 3307.

Another puzzle I have is the purpose of a side arm as viewed here.

 


Thank you for any information that will assist me.

This is a recent purchase of mine. The is an O gauge three rail engine. I was in the back on a shelf at local antique shop.
The cab is damaged, and the drive wheel are shot but I am confident I can get replacements.
 
 

The reverse switch is a slide on the front of the engine. A bonus feature is the bell in the back.

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.

Harold - in teh future, copy and paste the ebay  url into the poist box so we can see the listing.

Like this:

That's a repainted gondola.

Lionel made 813 stock, 814 box car and matching 2813,2814 cars in cream and maroon. Maroon is redish.

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

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

Layouts / Re: Terry's American OO layout 1934-40

I've been working on the railroad. The back area will be a tree covered mountain that will block  reach so I'm going to get the base elevations done now.

I started doing short videos for YouTube. They are 30-60 seconds each in a vertical format for phones. Almost no editing. The layout construction videos should all play in  a series from this one:



Like and follow the videos on Youtube if you want more.
