Description

 

 Here's another listing by   

Lone Star Trains and Collectibles,

Your Classic Era Train Headquarters!  


 

Here is a very special version a Lionel On-Track Step Van with all paper and the original box. You will NOT find it looking any better. These were popular motorized units in the modern era and have been released in different liveries.

THIS ONE  was released to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the Desert Division of the Train Collectors Association. Check out the very cool prismy holographic graphics on all sides including the roof! This is definitely the most unique of the step vans I have seen.

This vehicle runs on its own--put it on the track, give it juice, and watch the car roll down the track, taking the inspectors to work!  This is the perfect addition to your Lionel layout or train collection.

The car is like new and comes in the box with instructions. The unit looks great; the pick up on the bottom shows minor wear from being on the track.

Some features:

  • 0/027 scale for three rail
  • MADE IN THE USA
  • Motorized--runs on its own
  • Headlights light up
  • Motor runs on ac or dc power
  • Traction tires
  • Metal wheels and axles
  • Manufactured to run in forward only
  • Long Discontinued and sold out 
  • From 1996 only
  • TCA Desert Division release
CONDITION: C-8 to C-9. Looks like new to new. I am not sure it has been run much beyond our test run. It runs and lights. There is some oxidation you can see on the underside from sitting in the box for all these years. With paper and original box.

SCROLL DOWN into the listing past the description to see more pictures which you can enlarge.
