Reply to "Lionel 700E-2 Hudson What can you tell me about it?"

I agree with Craig, a modified 763.  Probably made between 1938 and 1942. The locomotive would run on DC, but it was designed to run on AC. If there is a whistle in the tender, DC will not work.  If it has not been run for many years, do not try to run it until it has been disassembled, cleaned and re lubricated. The old grease can lock up the worm gear and putting power to it could damage the motor if it can not turn. These locomotives can be difficult to dissemble without damaging something. You should find someone knowledgable with prewar 700e locomotives to help
