Trying to track this set down - its nothing special but its a railroad that my grandpa worked on during college. Let me know if you know of a local shop that has one - I have not seen one on Ebay in the past couple months. Thanks All

I found it in their data base, but there are none for sale right now, however, you can register there & put it on a wish list ! Then if someone, or a collector, who has it wants to sell it, you'll be contacted . I have bought from here in the past, &  got a good buy, with no problems at all ! 

 

Thanks, John

There is a Lionel Premium Frisco GP7 Set at The Train Barn in Portage, Michigan.

It has been in a display case for several years. This is a great set. A Frisco admirer should buy it.

There is a website for The Train Barn.

Try this address to link up to The Train Barn

www.trainbarn.com 

Seth Geim can package it and send it to you, if you want to buy it.

It's ironic that I just put together my son's fifth birthday present and went online to see about getting him more track and came upon your post. I picked up a brand new Lionel Frisco Freight Set model number 6-21972 from an old hardware store that had a brand new one on sale. We just took it out of the box, but I feel we could use more track. I read that 0-27 gauge comes in insulated track, and I guess un-insinuated track and I'm trying to figure out which track I need to order. Could you help me on deciding which one is right?
