Item arrived 5/6/24, a little bit late but well packed & intact. The tender looks like new on the outside, but the whistle doesn't work & needs thorough overhaul, which I'd do anyway. Also one of the pickup wires has cracked insulation. Not surprising considering it's 68 to 73 years old. Tandem-associates dot com says 6026W was an OEM match to my 1957 vintage #2018 steam loco among others. All in all happy with the condition for the price.

This coal/whistle car is in great shape! It reminds me of how much I enjoyed playing with my train set when I was a youth. My original coal car broke years ago, and now that I have a grandson, it spurred me on to buy a replacement...I'm glad I did.

Seller said "whistle works well", but in fact the operation was somewhat unreliable. I completely overhauled unit---cleaning electrical contacts and replacing frayed wires---so that it NOW works well.

A nice tender for Lionel O gage trains. Has a whistle that is activated by most postwar Lionel transformers. Works well with many Lionel O gage Steam Engines. A good addition to any Lionel collection.

It works great as an addition to my train set.
