    Description

    Here we have an exquisite example of the Trip-Ang Railways Passenger Railroad set, minus the box and track.  The set of cars sold here comes with:
    ~ Double-Ended Diesel Locomotive No. 5007
    ~ Transcontinental Baggage Car
    ~ Transcontinental Vista Dome Coach, No. 20425
    ~ Transcontinental Coach, No. 10724
    ~ Transcontinental Observation Car, No. 20537.
    The Engine and all Cars marked with the "TRI-ANG RAILWAYS" logo and are of the T.R. Blue Livery.  The set was originally released in 1960 and was again released in 1961.  It is difficult to describe the condition of these railcars as nothing short of fantastic, all lettering is near perfect, all wheels work, as far as I can tell there are no plastic parts missing, etc.  No dings, bumps, scratches, breaks, etc.  The plastic domes on the Observation Car and Vista Dome Coach are not broken and appear to be in original condition. I have NOT tested the Double-Ended Diesel Locomotive as I do not have sufficient track and/or transformer.  But this set came from the Estate of a serious collector and given this set's condition it was obviously lovingly cared for.  As with all of these precision made, British machines, they are serviceable and broken parts, etc. can be replaced if needed, although I have no reason to believe anything here needs replacing, other than maybe oiling and general lubrication.
    As always given the vintage nature of these items (60 years old) they are sold AS IS without return.  I am sorry for such a harsh policy but I have been burned in the past by those who would buy something only to return it later after they had broken it.  Everything will be shipped out after PayPal payment within 2 business days, and I am happy to ship outside the US for the actual cost.  Thanks for looking, and keep an eye out for some other treasures I have found from this same collector.
    UPDATE:  From the questions received I have taken a photo of the underside of the Locomotive, which shows a "third rail" for power, which is not surprising given the age of this set.  Hope that clarifies the listing.  Thanks again.
