CENTURY CLUB #773 HUDSON STEAM LOCOMOTIVE

 

Celebrating 100 years of Lionel. This is the engine everyone waited for...an exact model of the 1950's Lionel #773 with all the new technology. Lionel Century Club models were produced in limited quantities and only available for sale to Lionel Century Club Members who had to pay a membership fee just to be eligible to purchase one of these fine models which were Made in America. This has already become a collectors item and is in high demand by collectors who want the very best that Lionel made. Born of the meticulous craftmanship of the prewar era, the Lionel 773 Hudson is a symbol for a generation. Its scale proportions, unmatched performance, and sheer dominance of the rails still convey the power of Lionel leadership. The Lionel Century 773 is created using the original 1930's-era 700E tools crafted by La Precisa, the Italian tool-house once owned by the Lionel Corporation works manager Mario Caruso. And while the Century 773 Hudson has the exacting qualitiy of the prewar era, it also features the cutting edge innovations of late 20th century Lionel.
