LIONEL 6-30103 NYC FLYER SET

[waveland]

9/10

Does this set have die cast trucks on the rolling stock?  Although the 2010 catalog says yes, the photos of set look like a mix of die cast and plastic trucks.  Set at local big box store says nothing about die cast trucks.  I prefer die cast.  Can anyone help?  Thanks.  Waveland

Ok, I had to find the set box as all I took out was the engine. The cars have diecast sprung trucks. A nice set to own.

Die-cast sprung trucks, you say?  Interesting.  I wonder if the trucks are available separately.

Lionel does sell 2 kinds of die-cast trucks seperately, as well as K-Line:

Oops, my mistake.  I saw "NYC Flyer" in the thread header and thought this was Flyonel S gauge.  I had to look up the number online to see that it's O.

Sir James,

Thank you!  I have had some problems joining the Forum, so you may see a couple of other requests on this set from me.  My apologies.  In andy case, thanks for the info!  --Waveland
