Lionel 289E



This beauty still needs restoration. The brushes have been refreshed and the collector has been cleaned thoroughly. It is a good runner. Only the pilot wheel is a bit jumpy, so I need to do something about it, otherwise every switch is a gamble. A creative painter has changed the looks of this steamer dramatically. It is about time to bring her back in the original gun metal colour.
