Antique Hopping

[Roger Bielen]

yoah22, welcome to the forum and the world of toy trains. With your find being HO scale the group over on the Model Railroader forum could best answer your question since they are the HO fans. On this forum we're the ones that favor the next size up, "O" gauge, 1/4" = 1ft. Good luck and enjoy.

My wife and I were antique shop hopping and I came across a box full of HO trains.

Well I don't know what I have and would like to find out what and how to operate it.

Some of the paper work says that it is a “Sears HO scale Train set No. 49-95822 Item NO. 40-474C. from my reading this would be a Texas Locomotive. The Engine itself has number 765 as well as the Coal car with "Chesapeake & Ohio", on the side with matching numbers.

I am assuming this is a "Chesapeake & Ohio" Engine and Coal car. If so what would be the date of this Engine and is it possible to get a manual for the setup.

The box has all kinds of Nice Cars still in the original boxes as well as scenery for a layout.


Any help would be most appreciated
