Does anyone know how or where I can locate estimated values of my Tyco train collection? I have several pieces and sets that I have had from my childhood that are shown on the Tyco brown box web site. Many of these are said to have been made on for a few years. I actually still have the Sante Fe described below. Any help in locating this information would be appreciated. Please email me at:
Santa Fe (Freight Warbonnet blue and yellow) -No.228-22 (1976)
Found in the 1976 TYCO catalog only is this blue-and-yellow Santa Fe "Freight Warbonnet" scheme GP-20. To date, no samples have been found beyond the images seen in the catalog. It is currently thought to perhaps be a protoype and may never have been produced by TYCO. This Santa Fe paint scheme would have replaced the original blue-and-yellow freight painted GP-20 that was introduced with the model originally in the 1960s. TYCO adds a red-and-silver Passenger Warbonnet Santa Fe GP-20 to its line beginning in 1978.

Alec: Amen to Kevin's suggestion. There is no "price guide" so check your comparables on-line. On any given day all HO is worth is whatever someone else is willing to pay for it: best determined by seeing what other folks are paying for similar items to what you have. MagAc
