Thank you for the photo and your input!<br><br> I have seen the engine you have shown. I am thinking that an electric train like the lionel you have shown could have been the starting point for this engine. The castings for the wheels do not match Lionel though. The body work is also different. I think the lionel body is one piece whereas my engine has separate plates bent to cover the boiler. All of the rivets are done by hand as is the detail work.<br><br>My engine is definitely not in running condition. The steam oil has gummed up quite a bit and yes the flexible tubes that carry the fuel and water from the tender have deteriorated. Who know what condition the boiler is in.<br><br>Michael<br><br><br>
