Looking for general information (ie. year produce, part of set#) on a Lionel crane car number 5590. Any information will be very helpful.

I haven't had any luck finding this car up through 1991. I believe it is a MPC or modern era release (e.g. 1970 - present), but I could be wrong.

Are you sure it is Lionel and not Marx? Some material suggests Marx had a 5590 crane car.

Roy
