Nicholas Smith and America's Best both show one in inventory and there is one currently on Ebay. Hope that helps.

I have one of those (Lionel #6-17682), and I like it very much.  It rides behind coal drags, pulled by my Lionel Reading T-1.  But if you get one, I recommend leaving the smoke unit off.  I had a derailment, once, with the smoke unit on, and I only caught it in time as it shorted and the floor beneath the smoker was starting to melt.  No visible damage done, but since then I never use the smoke feature.  In fact, I intend to remove it altogether, and replace the oversized working stack with a scale one.

 

Other than that, it's a great model with excellent detail, much better than it appears in the catalog photo.  Mine has factory working marker lights.
