Lionel Postwar Set
Posted by cbtrainman on Friday, January 4, 2013 8:15 PM

Hello,

Is anyone familiar with a Lionel set  X-210?  It contained the 3512 Firecar and a low end plastic steamer.

thanks for your help

I found three possible sets in the Greenberg' price guide; 1) 2539WS 2) 2541W, both sets are from 1959 and listed as having Super O track. Another set from 1960, # 2551W with Super O track. Page 377 of the Greenberg's pocket price guide. NO X-210 is listed!

I also checked another book and found no X-210 set ever made at least not after 1960!

I did find the fire car listed in several uncataloged / promotional sets.

X-522NA, X-537NA, X-564NA, X-566NA, X-573NA AND a 9693 set. All the sets were made in 1960 for different customers, like department stores.

The above info was obtained from John Schmid's book "Lionel Promotional Outfits"

Thanks, Butleryard. IF YOU CAN READ THIS, THANK A TEACHER! IF YOU ARE READING THIS IN ENGLISH, THANK A SOLDIER!
