Lionel No. 255E Steam Engine w/ 263W Tender NO RESERVE

Here is a a fairly hard to find Lionel prewar "O" gauge Steam Engine - No. 255E, with a No. 263W Tender with automatic Box Coupler - in gun-metal gray. The engine measures 11-5/8" not including its couplers, and the Tender 7-1/4". The engine runs in forward, reverse and lights up. It is in very good condition - as seen in the pictures. Upon close inspection I noticed It has a replaced steam chest. The body is original. However, it does have some scratches, particularly on the top, as seen in the pictures. The Tender has the nice 6-wheel trucks. Looking at this tender closely, I believe it has been restored. Whistle does work. I took clear pictures for you to see all. Don't miss this really nice, and unique engine for your layouts. Offering in AUCTION format (support the auction format!) with NO RESERVE.
