    Description

    Production of LIONEL'S CABLE CAR began in 1953.  It was a four (4) year production run, and never changed for those years.  It was a flat car with a "depressed" center.  The cable reels for the most part were orange.  There was however, a SHORT production period where DARK GREY reels were produced.  These are the most difficult to find.
    The CABLE CAR has TWO (2) brake stands and TWO (2) brake wheels, (that turn).
    It has Bar End Trucks with two couplers both of which work.  The car is in better than EXCELLENT condition.  The wheels show little "run time".  It's hard to believe this car is 70 years old.  The "sans-serif" lettering is not worn and is very clear!  The cables are original and they have the original thick aluminum wire.  Also included is the original "strap" that holds the reels in place, (see the last pic, it is draped over the box).  It has all four (4) steps with no paint loss.  The flat bed is not plastic.  It is metal of some sort, (heavy) and the car is solid.  The wheels have been oiled and spin freely.  Ready to run.  Play or display.  This car is collector caliber.  The box however is very tired, but functional.  Questions welcome.  TCA and Northeastern Division Member in good standing.  If you don't love it; send it back.  FREE!  This car will be carefully packaged for safe delivery to your home in a new shipping carton.   Ships NEXT DAY OR SOONER (to the lower 48).  Thanks for looking and enjoy the pics...
