Need identification help

maybe??

I had looked at that but the manufacturers number that they show, 6-1794, does not exist.  I assume they just took a short cut and assumed the number on the tank was the model number.  I could not find 6-1794 on the Lionel website or in Greenberg's guide.  So, still looking for the correct Lionel model number.

Thanks TRW.  I can't find that number on a search, or e-Bay, or Greenberg's.

Does anyone know the history of this car?

Thanks again,

Bum

Based on the web page, this kinda sums it up.

In 1968, to commemorate the 10th anniversary of NETCA's formation, an American Flyer caboose with a Pilgrim hat motif was issued. In 1972 it was decided to start a program issuing a NETCA commemorative car each year based on New England railroads, or well known New England companies. The following is a list of items provided to date. "click" on the year to see a picture of the car.

Thank you Charly and TRW I missed the link on your reply.  This is what I was looking for.  Seems to be a rather limited production item and that is most likely I couldn't find anything on it .

Thanks again and on to the next one.
