Lionel 238E Vintage O Prewar PRR Silver Torpedo Streamlined Steam Locomotive VG/Box
This is a Lionel 238E 4-4-2 Streamlined Steam Locomotive from 1936-38. The locomotive features metal construction, a motor, a reverse unit, an operating headlight, a smoke unit, metal side rods, metal wheels and exquisite detail. The tender features box couplers, metal journals, metal trucks, and metal wheels.
Originally introduced in 1880 in the UK, the "Atlantic" or 4-4-2 would rise to prominence around the world in little to no time after its introduction. Respected and beloved around the world from the United States to Mozambique, the 4-4-2 found itself commissioned in various rail-yards across several continents. In the United States the 4-4-2 would be called the "Milwaukee “due to it running on the Milwaukee rail-road, but most would find that the "Atlantic" just rolled off the tongue a little bit better. In its construction the 4-4-2 saw an advantage over other locomotives thanks to its trailing wheels allowing for a deeper firebox in the driving wheels. Most of the Atlantic models would see their time in the spotlight come to an end, and would eventually go out of commission in the mid-20th century. Today handfuls exist in preservation status in various rail-road museums.
This item has been graded per TCA standards C-6: Very Good based on visual appearance. The locomotive and tender are non-functional and being sold As-Is. The tender's grab-iron pieces are bent. The locomotive and tender show scratches and spots of paint loss throughout various sections of the shell and chassis.
