Hello Murry & [#welcome] to the forum! I do believe you meant a 726 Berkshire with a 2426 Tender as Lionel never made a 926! The price range of a 726 & Tender are normally $600.00 Exc condition - $800.00 or more in LN-Mint condition. Go to postwar Lionel.com & they have links to two Train Shops in New Jersey that may have what you're looking for. Also, Try the Trading Post Train Shop in Cleveland,Ohio at 1-216-661-7300 & ask Jim if he has one.He may have one in his Backroom or basement and I've seen them there in his display case often. Check out the ads in CTT as well & maybe someone here on this forum may have one for sale also. Hope this helps you out.Take Care.

Thanks for the info & update.
Of course you are correct - it is an 726 that I am looking for.

If it is a 726 Berkshire the list price in Greenberg's Pocket Price Guide for 2006 is $250 to $395 depending on condition. The item 926 is a bottle of smoke fluid according to Greenberg's.
