No expert here, but the booze trains tend to attract a pretty good price. On the other hand, who knows what to expect. I sold an AHM Budweiser Hopper, NIB, for $25, but an equally nice Canadian Club with sharp gold graphics barely got $10.
Beyond that, I would have sold my wedding ring for that Canadiana set you posted a little while back.

| My experience with these sets has been poor. I had an RC Cola set, engine, caboose, boxcar. Maybe one other (in another scale). Threw the engine away. Stripped the boxcar of paint. Cabooses nobody wants (had two of them). If the person buying is a collector, and has a goal in mind for his/her collection, maybe. Model railroaders want prototype, and those aren't.
