Dennis Holler posted:Just got back from a four hour round trip to pick up a couple of sets of trains. The main reason I got them was the Prewar Flyer 572 loco and tender and associated set, 1941's #4131. Also came with a later Pikemaster set, a 9B transformer, and a nice clean Lionel 2037 loco in the box. Road Trip baby! Chicago traffic was nice for once!! Top picture was from the seller and the rest are minutes after I got back home and let the dogs out lol
Nice pick-ups @Dennis Holler ! Gotta love the pre or post Christmas train hunt road trips. Love that 1941 Flyer set- that's 3/16 scale on o-gauge, correct? The green gondola/sand car and the 434(?) caboose were both part of my first prewar AF purchase. I later went back for the box car and log car. My sand car is about 9.5 inches though, it definitely isn't in proportion to the white box car, caboose or log car. Regardless, gotta love prewar Flyer! Especially pre-war s-scale on o-gauge flyer! I think this is the first time I've seen the engine with the set- what a beauty!
Great haul on the whole my friend!!
Thanks Steve, yes all 3/16ths O.
