The underside of the flatcar bears embossed text reading MADE IN THE U.S. OF AMERICA THE LIONEL CORPORATION NEW YORK and 6424-11. Mechanical and electrical components are present, including two DC can motors equipped with brass flywheels and steel worm gears; one motor bears a white adhesive label reading RS-385PH D0824402 CHINA. The lot further contains a sound system circuit board with a small circular speaker, wiring harnesses with plastic connectors, and several clear plastic bags containing a yellow plastic crawler crane toy, window inserts, interior silhouettes, and assorted hardware such as screws and springs. , All items are in a disassembled and non-working state, being sold strictly for parts or restoration. The locomotive and passenger car shells are separated from their chassis and internal frames (photos 1, 9, 13). There is a heavy accumulation of dust and lint on the exterior surfaces of the shells (photos 6, 10, 16). The wiring for the motors and circuit boards is tangled, with several leads disconnected or stripped (photos 2, 3). The passenger car is missing its trucks and couplers, and the attachment points show signs of stress or breakage (photo 11). The flatcar shows wear to the plastic wheels and axles (photo 5). The crawler crane toy in the plastic bag appears to have loose or detached components (photo 20).
