Back in the 1970's & 80's, I collected American Flyer trains and had the hope of building a large operating layout. Towards the end of the 80's, it became necessary to postpone that dream, so I packed up the trains, planning to someday get back to it. Unfortunately, I've never been able to do that & it's obvious to me now due to health & financial issues, that I never will get the chance. I've had some other items up already and I'm gradually unpacking the trains to sell all but a few with sentimental value.All the items listed were collected by me during the 1970's and 80'. All of the engines, unless noted were running when put away. They will all need a good cleaning & lube, as they've been packed since then. If I'm able to test an engine, I'll note that below. This auction is for a rare 343 switcher with the e-unit on the back of the engine like the 5 later digit engines had, but I believe all the other ones of that series had a 2 position (forward/reverse) e-units, and this is a 3 position (forward/neutral/reverse) unit. When I was collecting, I saw a lot of engines, but only one like this. Engine runs & the E-unit works, but it will need a clean & lube. Please look at the photos carefully and ask questions before you bid, as I'm not a store, so all sales are final. Bidders with less than 10 positive feedbacks MUST contact me read more
