Randy_B posted:What is the knock on this set with the Can motor that Ted refers to? This is the one I would want unless there is a good enough reason not to. What is the number on the locomotive - is it 8014 or 2037? When I search this set there are images showing both but the person posting them might have made a mistake.
Randy,
The 8014 version refers to the one Lionel Trains Inc. made in 1991. That set’s engine came with a can motor as well as a transformer and an oval of track.
I still see that version ask a substantial price depending on where you look.
