Says Lionel. Bit of searching, it really is...but 60's vintage H0 Lionel!

Split them up....this listing boilers and tender shells, another cast chassis, another drivers.

Makes them useless, and even if you ante up and buy it all, where is the hardware? Where are the rods and valve gear?

Trash is the best to do with it.

Yeah. Well. That,too, but I leave those pointed barbs to you as far as OGeR is concerned.

This stuff, tho...I know zero folks who collect Lionel H0. The need for "parts" from stripped locos is probably less than zero.

Probably cleared out an estate, tried to sell them complete, no takers, so brilliantly deduced that they'd sell in useless pieces.

His other cra...err...garbag...err....stuff indicates the sales he is used to.
