Joseph, unless are just want to run these 15" cars, I would pass. The trucks are like 50's Lionel trucks that do not have needle point axles. In 1979 if I recall correctly, Williams came out with 18' cars that have trucks that were made in Korea with needle point axles. The difference is night and day. These Williams cars look nice sitting on a shelf.
In 2004 Williams reproduced almost Lionel made from the 50's that was worthwhile including these cars. They were a better product.
