Bidspirit auction | A Large Collection of Lionel
A Large Collection of Lionel and O-27 Model Train Track - A large collection of O gauge model train track components. The lot includes various straight and curved sections constructed from tin-plated steel. The straight sections feature metal cross-ties, with several pieces clearly bearing an impressed mark. One side of the metal tie is stamped LIONEL and the opposite side is stamped N. Y. The curved sections are designed with brown plastic ties and a copper-toned center power rail, consistent with the Lionel O-27 line. The collection is housed in a non-original corrugated cardboard box and includes multiple pieces of each type. Length: 10 inches (standard straight section). , The items show signs of age and previous use. Visible surface oxidation and rust are present on the metal rails and ties of several sections (photo 1). Some metal connecting pins are missing or appear slightly bent (photo 2). The plastic ties on the curved sections appear intact but show an accumulation of dust. The track sections have not been tested for electrical conductivity.
