Welcome to TYCO forum...while I do not do appraisals, there are members here who do. Hope you find what you're looking for.

Ebay is usually the best place to find out immediate values. Red Box Tyco is generally the '60's for the most part. I'm not any expert, but values generally run about $10-25 for diesels, 15-50 for steam engines, and from a few dollars to 10-20 for freight cars. SOme have more value due to scarcity, others you can find at swap meets for a dollar. Overall, a set like you have would probably bring 60 or more at full market value ( is the box mint, or damaged? ) down to $25-30. And most people already have some of those cars, so not wanting duplicates, you could expect 15-20 dollar offers for all. Unfortunately, Tyco isn't Lionel in value, so you won't get $30-40 per car, and over $100 per engine like some Lionel stock brings. Just my personal opinion.

AMCgremlinGT Is Right. If You Have A Chattanoga, $10 Givertake. Now If You Have A Big Sky Alco, Your Talking In The $50s To Maybe The $100-$110 Range.
