Thought I'd give you guys first crack at this Canadiiana before putting it on eBay. I'll run it here until Monday. It's in nice shape. Runs ok but like most Tyco's this age it could use a good cleaning etc. Headlight works. There's a box but it's a bit tattered. $110 USD includes shipping in Canada/USA. Overseas PM me for a quote.

Nice piece, probably will get it if you have the right buyer.
At one point, I would have shelled it out, but have gathered
my senses, at least for the time being. Best of luck, let us
know how it goes.

GG-1 Guy. Here's the Ebay auction for the one I sold 2 weeks ago. Don't forget my price includes shipping which from Canada to the U.S is about $20

| At 50 dollars I'd buy this in a heartbeat lol. I need this engine for my collection but I just can't do $110.

| IslandTrains, I think that one sold for that amount because of the condition of the box. I have to admit, I stand corrected and I wish you luck. I know I did not buy that much for mine and it is in a box like the one on eBay.

"One sale does not make a market", $100 seems to be on the high end.

Isn't this how it goes. For years I couldn't find one at any price,
now the market seems swamped.

High bidder asked me where the heck I'm finding them! LOL. He's been looking for one for quite a while and was outbid on the last auction. Seems fitting this one was found in our nation's capital (Ottawa)!
I got my VIA F units from the same fella. One of them is a dummy which makes me wonder if he had the same VIA set I had as a kid which was a Sears exclusive and it came with a dummy. It's the only VIA set that I have seen that came with the dummy.
