I was just lucky enough to get a beautiful 97 coal loader, but I have no coal for it. What kind of coal does it need? Can I use modern coal, or do I need the vintage stuff? Also, will it be okay working with more modern Lionel coal dump cars without making a HUGE mess? Any other advice on this item?
Oh, and the bottom flap of the box is coming apart. What glue would you guys suggest to re secure it so it does not get worse? Thanks
