Lionel Great Locomotive Race

1958 was before my time, but looks like an interesting piece.  For what it's worth, there is currently a listing for this game on the 4 letter auction site that ends with bay.  The listing claims that the item for sale is new in box unopened.  Would it be possible that this board game was sold without a set?

Hi,  I searched that site before posting and found 2 current and one sold, but they did not mention a box.  What search criteria did you use?

   I suppose it's possible it was sold without a set but I highly doubt it.  I've been aware of the game's existence for decades.  Finally got my hands on one.

Thanks for your reply,

Since we're not supposed to post links to that site, I'll email you a link shortly.

Ron, Just emailed you the link.

Asking prices of $225 and $350?? Yikes!!

Steve; Boxed is only the auctions interpretation of 'new'.  The lister should not have used 'new'.

Royboy; Yes, 'asking' prices.  Check the sold ones, the only one sold was for an unknown amount (best offer).  The price it did not sell for was $160.

Thanks for your responses,

Ron

IIRC, there is a short article on the game in CTT, but I have no idea what issue.

Is the game any fun?

Maybe for a 10 year old.

Great!  It must be just like playing with "O" gauge trains, then!
