I've only seen pictures of this locomotive and never seen one for sale. The steam locomotive is the HR700A from 1937-1938 for the American market (note the cow catcher). The auction house is only a few miles from my house so I might just stop by to have a look. Price is already at $2,300 (with 17 days left) and well out of my budget, but if anyone is interested, let me know. ThumpUp

Hi Kurt,

Great find! I haven't seen an original one in the big set box like this before. But it certainly looks original and excellent, the label too!

Highest price I saw ever for the HR 700 A without box was about 10.000 EUR in Germany, but I believe that was at the peak.

Best,

Paul
