Hello, up for sale is a large assortment of O Gauge Lionel Electric Trains. These were my father's and they have been in storage and not used for 30 years and everything shown in the pictures is included in the sale. I tried to list everything below but please look at the pictures. There are about 3 large 20 gallon bins of trains and accessories. Since these have been in storage for such a long time I tested all the locomotives. There is 1 running diesel engine, 2 running locomotives, 2 non-running/parts locomotives, a small non-running maintenance engine, many assorted cars, lots of track including some switch and un-coupler track, plus some buildings, signals, etc. I believe most of the collection dates back to the 1940's and 1950's.

I am asking $650 firm for everything and this set is currently located in Buffalo NY. Thank you for looking.
