    Description

    NOW LISTING ONE OF SEVERAL AMERICAN FLYER POSTWAR VINTAGE TRAINS,SETS,ENGINES,CARS AND ACCESSORIES FROM RECENTLY PURCHASED LARGE COLLECTORS ESTATE.
    I FOUND THE 474/475 DIESEL ROCKET PA/PA UNITS WITH THEIR ORIGINAL CARDBOARD WRAPS.ONE WRAP STILL HAS ITS ID.STICKER THE OTHER HAS NO STICKER.
    THE 4 PASSENGER CARS ALL HAVE THEIR BOXES IN VARYING DEGREE'S OF CONDITION AS SHOWN.
    A FEW END FLAPS MISSING AND SOME CRUNCHES HERE AND THERE. OVERALL CONDITION OF BOXES I KNOW CAN BE SLIGHTLY IMPROVED WITH SOME PATIENCE AND PRESSING AND REGLUING.
    THE PA UNITS APPEAR TO BE FOR THE MOST PART INTACT WITH ALL FRONT SKIRTS STILL INTACT.
    DECALS HAVE SOME WEAR HERE AND THERE AS WELL.
    YOU ARE MISSING A TOTAL OF 4 DOUBLE RIVET METAL STEPS TOO.
    YOU ARE MISSING 2 LITTLE PLASTIC DECORATIVE HORN UNITS ON TOP OF BOTH PA UNITS.
    YOU WILL NEED TO REPLACE SEVERAL COUPLERS.
    **** HORN UNITS,COUPLERS,STEPS AND DECALS IF YOU WISH TO IMPROVE THEM COSMETICALLY ARE AVAILABLE FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE FROM OTHER EBAY AF PARTS DEALERS.
    MAIN BODY COLORS OF PAINTED GREEN AND SILVER APPEAR TO STILL BE IN PRETTY GOOD CONDITION.
    I WOULD SAY A LITTLE LESS THAN AVERAGE SURFACE SCRATCHES TOO.
    ****  I JUST GAVE THE ENGINE A QUICK BENCH TEST AFTER NOT BEING RUN FOR 40 PLUS YEARS. I FOUND THE MOTOR UNITS..YES.........2 MOTOR UNITS IN POWERED UNIT DID WORK PRETTY GOOD AND EUNIT DID SEQUENCE PRETTY GOOD AS WELL.
    THE PA DIESEL DUMMY UNIT WITH DIESEL SOUND OF ROAR HAS NOT BEEN FULLY TESTED,BUT WHEN I DID PUT IN DOWN ON TRACK WITH POWER ON...IT DID MAKE THE CONSTANT DIESEL SOUND. I DID NOT SEE ANY OFF OR ON SWITCH UNDERNEATH UNIT?
    I WOULD STRONGLY RECOMMEND IF YOU ARE GOING TO RUN  THESE UNITS TO CLEAN AND RELUBRICATE AND FULLY TUNEUP UNITS FIRST. AFTER ALL.....THESE WERE MANUFACTURED BY AC.GILBERT IN 1955 .....SO I THINK ITS ABOUT TIME FOR A TUNE UP.
    THE 4 PASSENGER CARS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
    960 COMBO CAR
    961  PASSENGER COACH
    962 VISTA DOME PASSENGER COACH
    963 OBSERVATION CAR.
    I DO NOT SEE ANY CRACKS OR REAL DAMAGE TO SPEAK OF ANYWHERE . THE USUAL FEW SURFACE SCRATCHES HERE AND THERE FOR THE MOST PART.
    ALL CAR AND PA UNITS HAVE CLEAN UNDERCARRIAGES WITH NO SIGNS OF RUST WITH CLEAN TRUCKS AND WHEELS AS WELL.......
    *** ALL CARS DID ILLUMINATE WHEN TESTED JUST NOW.
    AN ORIGINAL AMERICAN FLYER DIESEL ROAR HORN CONTROL UNIT WITH BOX IS ALSO INCLUDED AND NOT TESTED.
    **** ALSO INCLUDED IS AN ASSORTMENT OF ORIGINAL PAPERWORK AS WELL.
    ALL SOLD AS SHOWN AND DESCRIBED AND AS IS. I BELIEVE I HAVE COVERED ALL THE IMPORTANT DETAILS,BUT IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? PLEASE ASK BEFORE BIDDING OR PURCHASE.
    THANK YOU,CARL..
