Produced in 1991 as part of Lionel's famous inventors series. Dr. Robert Goddard was our first rocket scientist, a pioneer of controlled, liquid-fueled rocketry. He launched the world's first liquid-fueled rocket on March 16, 1926. From 1930 to 1935, he launched rockets that attained speeds of up to 885 km/h (550 mph). Though his work in the field was revolutionary, he was sometimes ridiculed for his theories. He received little support during his lifetime, but would eventually be recognized as one of the fathers of modern rocketry. Car Features; plastic molded reefer body, plastic trucks with operating couplers, metal wheels, and authentic Lionel graphics.
