  • ITEM NO.-------464-647
  • TYPE--------------Sparkling electric articulated set.
  • NOTE--------------From about 1938, this is an early example of the double reduction motor and equipped with the short lived sparkling mechanism. Just not going to last in an electric set. These are generally found with the guts stripped out. This one is complete and working however it is tempermental.
  • COUPLER-------Talgo pins.
  • CONDITION-----EXCELLENT. Little playwear but the Cleveland car has a strip of rust across the roof and the Detroit observation has a little discolored area. Very nice example.
  • PRICE-------------$450.
  • SHIPPING--------At cost based on location.
