Lionel “Transcontinental Limited” train
| Description: |
The actual name of this set is the Transcontinental Limited. The first year Lionel made State sets (people called them that because of the names of the cars: California, Colorado, Illinois, New York) the engine that went with the set wasnt strong enough to pull the 4 cars that weigh nearly 6 lbs. each! It was replaced the next year. |
