I'm assuming you use your screen name on other sites. Someone with your handle asked the same question elsewhere. If that wasn't you then here is the information:
#7 Wind up Boxcab Electric
The little engine was first shown in the American Flyer 1928 Advanced Trade Catalog. It was listed as heading up two sets #722 and #723. Set #722 had two #517 Empire Express cars while set #723 had two slightly larger #515 series passenger cars. Both set descriptions indicated the cars were lithographed to match the lithography of the engine. Schuweiler’s book on AF O gauge reports two locomotive color combinations: 1) Red sides, orange top and pilot, and green details in emerald and olive with emerald green “Empire Express” lettering. 2) Orange sides, green top, black pilot, and green and black details with black “Empire Express” lettering.
The sets are listed in the 1929 and 1930 dealer price sheets (9 and 12 dollars a dozen respectively). In 1931 only set #722 was listed with the addition of two #516 series passenger cars. Neither the locomotive nor the set are listed in the 1932 dealer price sheet.
