Where do I find a Train???
Posted by Anonymous on Wednesday, February 6, 2002 9:13 AM
I am looking for a certain O scale Lionel Locomotive and Tender. It is the 6-18606 New York Central 2-6-4 found in the 1989 Lionel Toy Fair Edition book. I purchased the passenger cars for this engine and tender back in 89 with the intention of getting the above mentioned later. Big mistake on my part. Where might I be able to go on the internet and possibly purchase this Locomotive and Tender? Please email me with anything that might help or reply to this thread.
My email is redeye17@losch.net Thanks!!

Have you tried searching on eBay? Try searching under the Lionel category and using the part number and then the description. You might also try hobby shops with search engines like Caboose Hobbies in Denver.

Paul:

I just bought a the locomotive, tender and 7 passenger cars off of ebay a couple of days ago. If you do a search at yahoo.com or hotbot.com for 6-18606, you will find a few of them out there on the net in the $175 - $195 range for the locomotive and tender set.

Keep me posted. I have not yet taken delivery of my set...just waiting in anticipation.

Later.

Did you purchase the locomotive that I mentioned? I did a search on yahoo and on hotbot and did not find the 6-18606 Locomotive and tender. Perhaps you can search for me and send me the link via email. I would greatly appreciate it. If you did purchase the 6-18606 might I ask how much you payed for it? Thanks!
