According to Doyle this set was made in 1961 and consisted of the 2037 2-6-4(not a 4-6-4 Hudson) w/ 233W, 6470, 3330, 3419, 6544, 6017, track & transformer.

There are many variables  to consider for value... including completeness, condition, set box, all the little paper items & envelopes, among them.

A 2-6-4 is an Adriatic, although Lionel insisted on calling them prairies, which are 2-6-2, probably because the earlier 2026 was a prairie.
