This train has been in storage for 30 years.

Does anyone recognize this train? Year? Number?


The zinc pest is clearly there. Some wheels are missing.

But the locomotive and the end car are good.
Thank you,
Bill

ST 800, circa 1950's, give or take. Exact version will come down to small details. Some photos of the underside will help.

Nice 5-unit set
