Lionel pre-181e

THREE-CAR FREIGHT SET WITH 262E STEAM LOCOMOTIVE

 

This set was available in 1933 and 1934. It was the same as the No. 181 set available in 1932, except the 262 was given a new style of reverse unit in 1933. This set includes the 262E with a matching 262T tender, 812 gondola, 814 boxcar, and 817 caboose. The 812 gondola came in either dark green or the lighter, Stephen Girard green. The boxcar always came with cream sides and orange roof and trim. The caboose came with either a peacock green or dark green roof and red body with brass trim. Like any other Pre-World War II set, it is often difficult to find boxes.
