Why can't I find my 1962 train set anywhere online?

 Thanks, guys. I've already done what research I can online, but I will switch it over to the other forum and see if they have any ideas

I'd agree with MR forums being a better place to start, or the Atlas N-scale forum. (N scale gets it's name from it's Nine mm track gauge.) You could also search the web - not for people selling them, but for collectors of N scale stuff, or search for a history of Arnold Rapido co. I bet there's a website somewhere that lists all the stuff they've made.

I'm guessing that it is HO. You might want to ask this over in the Model Railroader forum since HO is more in line with their readership.

 My parents are moving, and in the process of packing we found my dad's old 1962 train set by Arnold Rapido. It is nearly complete (missing one box car) and in great condition, so Dad challenged me to find out information about it. The problem is, I can't find this set anywhere!! I've looked on ebay and googled it, and found information on the company itself and individual cars and track, but not this particular set. Any ideas on where I can find more information? The set has 4 curved tracks, 6 straight tracks (it's 9mm track), a New Hampshire locomotive, Pennsylvania coal tender, Shell tank car, EJ&E box car, a caboose, control, re-railer, and terminal clips with cable. I really appreciate any help, as I know nothing about model trains.
