Here's something for you postwar collectors. This set came from a woman in Sun City. Her Brother had Lionel trains, he died, and the trains ended up in her garage. She sold them to me.
It's a 2026 loco with a 6466W tender that was in a 2466W box with the number overstamped to 6466W. The tender says 6466W on the bottom, but has the 2466 style electromagnetic coupler. That could have been changed by someone with a screwdriver, but the wires look right.
No one cares about the tender.
The interesting thing here is the 6561 flat with cable reels. I've never seen that color cable reel before. Here's some close up pictures.
