In the 1950's I had the Junior Engineer AC Gilbert erector set, Block City white blocks with green doors and windows, Tinker Toy and Lincoln Logs plus a Lionel O Gauge train set from 1956. For Christmas 1957 I received the Lionel magnetic crane, now I could load erector set bracing into the Lionel gondola car on onto the Lionel flatcar. Still have the train set and magnetic crane no issues operating either, the only repair was to rewire the crane control wire to the controller. My wife said she has recently seen Lincoln Logs and they are quite expensive.
