Pre War American Flyer train set in box

PLEASE READ: As auctioneers we have done our best to lot this enormous collection and represent each lot as best we could. Please remember a few things when looking and bidding. Nothing has been tested. We tried to make groupings of like items. For example: if we list a group as American Flyer we believe it to be all AF but may have made a mistake- some pieces are not always marked so it can be hard to know. We are human as well and having over 6,000 cars to sort was a bit overwhelming! We try to show any damage via photos more than typing it out- a picture can speak a thousand words. Trains are actually fragile and many have pieces missing or broken that we may not even know were supposed to be there. The owner, Jerry, did sometimes do repairs or paint touch ups- we can't always tell if something is original or not. The vast majority is original. All of this said we encourage questions before the day of the auction so we have time to answer them. Thank you!
