This no reserve auction is for an original Lionel 3472 Operating Milk Car in its original box. This popular and entertaining set was manufactured by Lionel from 1949 - 1953. The features of this piece date it to 1949 when it was a component of cataloged sets 1455WS, 2141WS and 2147WS.This piece is simply outstanding. The polystyrene car shell is a bright creamy white color. Both slide shoes are present. The wiring looks good. No scratching on the underside of the frame. All 4 corner steps are present. The green 3462P platform has a fantastic glossy finish. Just a couple of flea bite nicks. The original chrome platform has a nice shine to it with no rust. The original 3472-11 instruction sheet is printed on pale blue paper and is dated 11-49. The 7 magnetic milk cans are still in the short 3462-70 original box. It appears to be unopened with the milk cans inside. I am not going to open the box but I will guarantee that all cans are inside. All flaps are fully intact with the box showing minor wear. The original 3472 Middle Classic box is a brick with all flaps intact. There is no number on the tuck flaps (correct for 1949). The box has a little nicely done glue repair. Keeping everything centered inside the box is an original 3462-101 liner insert. A 51149 inspection slip rounds out the package. Overall, a super nice early 3472 Operating
