As I understand it Lionel had a Chrome & Orange clockwork 1700. A Red & chrome, Red & Gray, Yellow & Brown, all Silver, Orange & Gary. These all had Lionel JR motors. I just got some parts that I've been waiting on forever. Name plates (Lionel Lines). I've not done them yet. I hate the rivets to hold the trucks on. I'm not a rivet guy at all. With Christmas, CV-18, Vaccine. Sick people with the virus, shipping is a mess. I've been waiting two weeks on a purchase of two extra 1701 coaches? What a mess. Stay home and play with the dog & trains. Be Safe.
I did finally get a GreenBerg book 1901 - 1942 so I could try to understand the colors. I was real disappointed in the book.
