Have tried in the wanted section with no luck so trying here to a larger audience.
A friend has asked me to keep an eye out for a Lionel NYC tugboat but may
consider other roads.
If you have one or know where there is one for sale please contact me.

The train shop I repair for has a new one in stock. I don't remember the road.
I know Nicholas Smith in Broomall outside of Philly had some, but I'm pretty sure none were NYC.
I have a Lionel B&O tug boat w/box that I might consider selling. My email is in my profile.

Hi Many thanks have sent you an email James
O geez, I see your location is Cornwall. I doubt I will be there anytime soon or that you will be near me. I was going to say that you could have my tugboat if you wanted to drive over to my place and get it (I think its Lehigh Valley, not sure). It was one of the greater rare disappointments I had with Lionel: it arrived with many pieces loose, one or two mildly warped, etc. I keep it on a shelf for the day I will use it to bash into something good, but I seriously doubt I will ever get to it. Unless you really want a Lionel tugboat, I would recommend any of the dozens of good model boat kits you see in Boats and similar magazines.
Thanks Lee, It is for a friend and he`ll be over tomorrow so will pass on the problematic issues to him.
WM will tell Ted about yours.

I used one of these 14 inch tugs once. They are plastic kit by Lindberg and look great. You can get one on E-bay for about $40.00. Don
