Need help finding catalog year for Lionel NYC F-3's

[Anonymous]

Here's a research challenge for the Lionel guys out there. I spent half my time at the train show yesterday looking for the catalog that would have had the NYC F-3's #8370 & the B unit #8371 to no avail. Anyone have a catalog somewhere around 1982-83 that might have them listed or pictured? Just trying to find the right catalog year so I can go buy one. Thanks in advance.

Lionel Collector Series, 1983 - pp. LC-4 to LC-5. The catalog is silver, with black picture artwork on the front and a Fundimensions logo on the rear.

The photos show The Twentieth Century Limited set, consisting of the 8370 and 8371, as well as 8372 (dummy A), 9594 (baggage), 9595 (combo), 9596( passenger), 9597 (passenger) and 9598 (observation).

Hello Railroaded again! The Trading Post Train Shop has old Lionel Catalogs in Stock and I believe he has the 1983 Catalog as well. Their phone # is 1-216-661-7300 and he may even have that particular Train in Stock as well. Good Luck.
