Lionel O Gauge 6-8864 New Haven F-3 Non-Powered Dummy Diesel B-Unit - A vintage Lionel O and O27 gauge model train diesel engine, catalog number 6-8864. This unit represents a New Haven Railroad F-3 B-unit, specifically designed as a non-powered dummy unit for use in multiple-unit lash-ups. The locomotive features a plastic shell mounted on a metal chassis. The livery consists of the New Haven McGinnis-style silver paint scheme with a prominent orange-red horizontal stripe and black accents. The side panels display the NH logo in red. The end panel of the box is clearly printed with manufacturer name Lionel, catalog number 6-8864, and the designation Non-Powered Dummy Unit. The item is housed in its original illustrated retail box. Although the box front features a red circular sticker advertising a Pullmor motor, the factory-printed end panel identifies this specific unit as the non-powered version. The locomotive appears to be in good visual condition as viewed through the box window. The original packaging shows significant signs of age and shelf wear. The rear panel of the box exhibits substantial surface loss and tearing across the printed illustrations. The front and end panels show scuffing, edge wear, corner softening, and minor staining. The internal plastic window remains intact but shows some light scratching.
