Celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the first Lionel set "to make the run" on the super-realistic Super O track system!
Originally released in 1957, this special set is highlighted by a #736 Berkshire equipped with a mighty Pullmor motor, an eight-wheel drive system, and the exclusive gripping power of Magne-Traction.
This "14-wheel monarch of the rails" is updated to include the TrainMaster Command Control System and the RailSounds sound system.
The "all-action" #2289WS Berkshire Freight Set is packed with classic cars carefully rendered to match the Postwar originals.
The train set includes the first-time reissue of the #3359 twin dump car, the #3361 log car with original ratchet-type cam design, a #6430 flatcar with grey-version Cooper-Jarrett vans, the colorful #3494 State of Maine Operating boxcar and a #6427 caboose.
In celebration of the 50th Anniversary of this set and Super O, each piece of rolling stock will also feature classic die-cast metal bar-end type trucks.
