    Description

    For sale is a vintage TYCO Chattanooga Choo-Choo HO scale electric train set. Set appears to have seen a decent amount of use over the years, but is still in good condition for its age. The box cover is very worn and with many tears and tape repairs. Individual boxes inside are still mostly intact and in fair condition. The locomotive and tanker car boxes are missing the clear plastic front covers. The caboose box is missing the carboard insert and clear plastic front cover.
    I have looked over the locomotive and all of the cars closely. All of the couplers and wheels are present and all of the other fine details appear present and intact unless otherwise noted below. It is very possible I may have missed something small here and there. Please remember this set has seen a good amount of use and is by no means a high-end collectors piece. Any major flaws are noted below.
    Set Includes:
    2-8-0 Chattanooga #638 Steam Locomotive - Complete with smoke fluid and funnel
    Locomotive was run for about 20 minutes and ran pretty well. The headlight works and the locomotive ran in both forward and reverse. I added a few drops of smoke fluid, but the smoke function did not work. The gear were lightly oiled, but may require additional lubricating upon arrival.
    Gulf Tanker Car - Complete
    Old Dutch Cleanser Hopper Car - Complete
    Santa Fe Crane Car - Complete
    Santa Fe Boom Boom Tender Car
    Chimney broken off top of the boom tender caboose, but is included. Otherwise, complete.
    Santa Fe Caboose - Complete
    36 in. x 45 in. Oval Track Layout
    Includes 2 straight sections, 11 curved sections, 1 curved terminal track section, and extra rail connectors.
    AC/DC Hobby Transformer
    Fully functioning. Some minor scuff and scratches
    17 Piece Bridge and trestle set - Complete
    Remote Steam Whistle Billboard - Complete
    Complete, but doesn't function properly. When hooked up to the transformer, the whistle motor is noisy and does not make much of a whistling sound. Probably would require internal cleaning and lubrication.
    Original Manuals and Paperwork
    I have tried to picture everything as best as possible. If you would like additional photos or have any questions please contact me before purchasing.
    I will do my best to preserve the box during shipping, but additional wear and tear may happen. Due to the age of this set, I cannot guarantee its long-term functionality. Item will be insured and shipped Fed Ex Ground.
