Description In the early days of the modern period of Lionel, there was a true transition from model trains to scale trains. Someone at LTI (as it was back then) did their homework and were able to bring back the prewar scale B6b switcher! Not long after, the legendary 700e returned along with the resurrected railchief and scale freight cars, including 2 that had been never seen before: a C&O Stock car and a Lackawanna Reefer!

Today, this engine remains a symbol of the 90's as perhaps the easiest of the 700e engines to find along with being one of the first engines to have Lionel's 1st generation of Railsounds installed. The chuffing was rather horrid, but the other sounds were pretty decent. The other scale freight cars are somewhat common to come by but the C&O and Lackawanna cars are more rare as I've been told.

I am too! The graphics especially, but in time im gonna go back and actually make the text in paint rather than type it in. Same goes for the rest of the cars!

They don't call it scale for a reason! Thanks!
