LGB 20537MF Marshall Field's Great Western Railroad Passenger Set 1987 New 1/500

  
LGB 20537MF Marshall Field's Great Western Railroad Passenger Set. Condition appears to be new, contact pads show a tiny bit of a test run (every thing works) and traction tire shows no wear (see pictures). The passenger cars have never been on the track (see pictures). This is a classic, rare, dated (1987) G gauge vintage train set. There were only 500 of these made for Exclusive Marshall Field's distribution at Christmas. These remarkable trains are durable, easy to get on the tracks (which are brass for indoor and outdoor use), reliable, and fun to play with.

High quality West German manufacture (not China). The doors open and latch closed using the door handles on both ends of the passenger cars. The roofs are removable to expose the seats inside the car.

The engine has both forward and reverse lights and is marked MFGWRR 1987. A circle of 12 curved tracks included along with 4 people and the engineer who is attempting to retire after 35 years (he is loose due to dry glue, a common illness in LGB engineers). This is a well made and solidly constructed set. If you do not specify, I will assume you want everything shown. This train is packaged in a traditional red window box (see pictures) and is one of the rarest LGB sets in my collection.

Marshall Fields was a large department store in Chicago similar to Macy's. I remember this set on display as part of their Christmas show cases.
