This is a particularly nice example of Lionel’s No. 68 Executive Inspection Car, made to represent the railroad “Hy-Rail” style inspection automobiles that could travel on railroad track.
The combination of the car, original numbered box, inner packing/insert and instruction sheet makes this a much more desirable collector package than a loose No. 68.
Seller’s Note: I am not a train expert. This piece came from a very large estate train collection that I am currently sorting and listing. Please use the photographs to make your own determination regarding condition, originality and completeness. If I have misidentified anything, please message me.
Collector’s Note: This item is part of a massive Lionel collection containing postwar trains, accessories, rolling stock and related pieces that will be listed over the coming months. Save my seller profile and check back for additional pieces.
