    Great engines. Solid poewer for beginers and old heads.

    This is the same engine that I received for Christmas 1948 when I was not quite three years old. I have a fair number of them and can't seem to turn one down when they are reasonably priced, lol. Excellent runners and will pull a far sized train.

  • Top critical review

    Better for display than running

    I assumed this engine had magnetraction but it does not. The engine cannot get started without slipping on the rails, even with no cars attached. With a light load it of course slips even more. Not very practical for a layout but at least looks nice on a shelf.

  • Lionel 1666 prewar Prarie engine

    I love this engine! Quite basic, yet it has nice details like a 3 piece bell, eccentric rods, marker jewels, hand rails, nickel trimmed wheels, separately applied Whistle and a dependable motor. Brings back memories for sure.

  • Worked out great for me, just what I was looking for.

    It worked out great for me. It had a couple of pieces missing on one side but I used it in a static display to replace my 1946 engine that was only about 80% th
