28 PIECES, 81 7/16" LONG
Picture yourself wheeling this superpower battleship with its string of five brilliantly colored plastic cars. How those eight huge drive-wheels hug the rails. How smoothly the power flows from the mighty electric engine through the precision-built worm drive. How realistically the "choo-choos" rumble and snort — rising and descending in tone as you change train speed. How thrilling to see real smoke pouring out and floating like a long plume over the landscape. And what vivid, spectacular action you get when that mail car flashes by. Automatically a metal arm reaches out and grabs up a sack of mail — while another sack comes tumbling to the ground. From its long-beam Lucite head light to the gleaming guard rail on the observation car, it’s every inch a deluxe limited . . . so perfectly built and beautifully finished that it will delight the most critical scale model railroader. The two magnificent coaches, Pullman and observation car are all illuminated. Two-rail track makes 180" oval. 150 or 250 Watt Transformer recommended.
