Does anyone have the original southern 4 6 2 by tyco? The one from the rb era in the darker scheme. Also does anyone have the passenger cars that came with this set? I would like to know about the rarity of these items and more about them. I've searched Ebay for years and have not seen this set or Southern passenger cars in general.

I have noticed that it is quite rare. I love the locomotive and cars, hope to get them someday

Well, steamers that are some color besides Vanderbilt black (Or Brunswick Green-as-seen-through-old-color-film-which-basically-turns-it-black) do seem to have appeal.

As some of you may have seen, I was able to get my hands on a pretty nice older CL engine that runs good. I likely went way overboard with the $62 price tag though.

The price is not overboard if you're willing to spend for what you want .

Wow, you know that set's rare when you've never seen it before!
If I can't fix it, I can fix it so it can't be fixed.
