1. Seven cars – Engine and tender #21004, coal car #801, oil tanker #925, box car #807, gondola #805, and caboose #806

3. Other pieces – people, farm animals, street lamps, train track trestles (19 pcs.), traffic signs, telephone poles, dolly, baggage cart, park benches, RR crossing guards (2), billboards (2), canoes, picket fence (see pictures for more detail)
4. Train Track – Total length 18 feet, 16 curved, 6 straight
5. Other track and electric pieces – transformer, track terminal, uncoupler, track locks, whistle, and whistling billboard (transformer and other parts listed here have not been confirmed as still working). The transformer hums when plugged into an electrical outlet. The track has not been set up for many years to see if the transformer and other necessary components will work to operate the train. Therefore, some repairs may be required to get the train into operational condition. A new transformer might even be required. Any other electrical accessories, like the whistling billboard, have also not been checked in several years to see if they are operational. I have priced the entire set accordingly.
6. Instructions/packets – box w/instructions for uncoupler, note card regarding engine wheels, smoke cartridge packet with funnel inside, whistling billboard instructions, track terminal, and track lock instructions (see pictures)
