This is a nice old Lionel 623 Santa Fe switcher that came from a large estate train collection. It has not been cleaned or restored. I only lightly dusted it off and left it basically the way I found it.
The locomotive presents pretty well for its age, but there is visible dirt, dust, paint wear and some oxidation/surface rust, particularly around the end platforms, pilots and underside. I took close-up pictures from both sides, both ends, top and underneath so you can see exactly what is included and judge the condition for yourself.
This locomotive is completely untested. I have not attempted to power it up, so I cannot say whether the motor, lights, horn or any other electrical/mechanical functions work. It is being sold as-is in untested condition.
Seller’s Note:
I’m not a train expert. This came from a large estate train collection that I recently purchased, and I’m listing the collection a little at a time. I’ve done my best to research and accurately identify and describe each piece. If I’ve missed something or have something incorrect, please feel free to let me know. Please look closely at all of the pictures, as they are an important part of the description.
