The product is a rare Lionel Prototype Erie Lackawanna EL 9043 Gray Box Car Shell. This is molded in gray plastic not painted. This item comes with the Lionel factory move ticket. This move ticket serves as the provenance for this piece and is marked as such on the description Line of the ticket. This is a piece of Lionel history. The box car shell represents the Erie Lackawanna corporate roadname and is part of the Lionel franchise, making it a sought-after collectible for model train enthusiasts. With its unique design and gray color, this ready-to-go pre-built item is a valuable addition to any train collection focusing on transportation themes.

This came from the Dr. Woodell postwar Lionel train collection. I had the opportunity to get into this eccentric collection and buy some really cool and oddball Lionel trains and dealer items. This item was previously listed a few months back and pulled off eBay for a private collector. It is now relisted as funds were diverted to a larger dealer display that was listed.

I specialize in rare, unique, unusual, movie prop, and man cave type display items and collectibles.
