Tin Wind Up ~ Santa-Fe Lionel Shunting Train Set Special Limited Edition This is a collectors special licensed by Lionel. All tin construction. 15 inches long. Wind up clockwork motor drive. Robust mechanism. It is a special limited edition with a serial number and registration card. Unique sophisticated action! 
See Photos Below The set consists of two station houses, and two turntable tracks with a length of track between them. This is where it gets fun. You wind it up, and throw the ON switch. The Santa-Fe Engine tows the caboose to the station. Then, they uncouple, the engine turns around on the turntable, and pushes the caboose back into the caboose barn. Then, the engine turns around again on the other turntable, recouples to the caboose and tows it back up the tracks to the station again! You can see it in Action on You Tube by Clicking Here.  It runs several times back and forth on one winding. The whole set comes in a Lionel showcase box with a flip up lid and the complete set is under thick clear plastic. Designed for both show and play. Wind up tin toys don’t get much more fun than this. All high quality workmanship. No plastic, all tin, typical tab construction. The tin lithography has phenomenal highlights with minute detailed features expected in a Lionel product. It’s heavy, 2 Lbs shipping weight. Buyer pays actual priority mailing depending on Zip code. This retro toy is just like the original 1950’s era production model. We pack it securely. Notice :
