LIONEL GIRL’S TRAIN SET. An unbelievable set. In an attempt by Lionel to reach a wider audience, the company created a set for girls in more cheery pastel colors. Not many were sold, making them very scarce today. This is a rare opportunity, not only to be able to find a set with all their original boxes, it even has the set box! The set includes the engine, tender, canister car, two box cars, hopper car, gondola car, caboose, and transformer. Originally coming from the original owner, they were purchased for her because, coming from a family of all boys, she was left out of much of their fun. Her brothers were not allowed to use it, and the few times she ran the train, she immediately put the set back in their boxes until the next time, which accounts for their stellar condition. The current consignor has had them for several years, just having them packed away. CONDITION: Engine has one or two tiny chips on cab roof and one or two tiny rub marks on coupler base. Caboose has one or two minor blemishes on roof. Box car 6464/510 has a few small chips on ladder and one chip missing. Set box number 15875 has two flaps with tattered edges; one box seam is loose; two flaps have brown tape on them, probably original to the set; one corner torn and retaped. 1-10532 (3,000-4,000)
