« on: January 19, 2019, 08:19:32 pm »
I have the Rich-art 5 car with 256 engine set (712/710 x 2/ combo car baggage car)  mint condition
I also have the original 256/ 710 x 2 and 712.  excellent condition.  Engine restored to mint condition

How much are they worth

Hello & Wellcome to the Forum!

Rich Arts are very nice but uncommon tinplate train sets.
Value? My only suggestion is to go on to the online auction sites and look at the completed/sold Rich Art original and restored trains. The restored ones will have less value than the untouched/original trains.

Happy Rails!

Welcome to the forum!

Just a note concerning the word "mint".

By definition, "mint" items are in their original packaging, unopened and unrun.

Your engine is restored to "like new" condition.

Understanding these definitions is necessary to obtain a fair appraisal of your trains.
