Lionel PWC Wabash or Rio Grande F3 set or Virginian FM SET?

[FEClionel]

Now that both sets have been out for a while they are starting to get hard to find. Before they all dry up I want to catch one before they are gone. Which of the two is a better choice - I really can't decide on either. Or should I go nuts and get the Santa Fe Super Cheif set? any thoughts????

When all sets seem equal in collectablity. The best advise is to buy what you like! No one else's opinion matters.

[FEClionel]

What about the new Virginian FM diesel set?? Which one?

[Dr. John]

Well, since you are asking, I'd go with the Wabash set.

I'll second the Wabash set !

[Anonymous]

Dr John is right. You did ask! My personal favorite from you list is the Santa Fe Super Chief. It's the one I'd like to have in my collection. Go nuts!

None of the above, buy postwar originals

[FEClionel]

Ok its between the wabash and the virginian FM set - which would you pick?

[Anonymous]

Virginian, I remember drooling over it from the catalog when I was a kid.

[FEClionel]

OR....

[okiechoochoo]

I think it depends on which one YOU like the best.

I think the Super Chief set will be the cream of the crop again this time as it has always been in past issues. That said, of the other 3 sets, I'd rate the Wabash highest 'cause they did a really nice job with those F-3s (not to knock the Rio Grande which is nice enough too).
