I have a 1953 Lionel Milwaukee Road train set that my dad purchased upon discharge from the Army. The engine is an AB diesel unit. The set comes with a offloading milk car, offloading wooden barrel car, a coal tipper, and a culvert pipe crane/loader with corresponding car and a lighte caboose. The set includes a large transofrmer to operate the train and will operate up to four trains. The set is in its original packacging/boxes including Lionel tissue paper and there is a Lionel catalog in the box as well. All is well preserved but has not been operated in several years.
My dad purchased at a long closed department store in Braddock, PA upon discharge from the Army in 1953
