Thanks for the comment. Yes, this is the 8307 from 1983. I don't plan on selling it, it's been in our family since it was new. But one never knows what the future holds and I'll keep your offer in mind. And yes, I am very thankful to have this as well as all the trains I have.
I always liked how the MPC steamers had steam coming put of their steam chests! Great looking set! And I've actually got 4 of those full vista dome cars!
4 full vista domes??? Now that's cool. Growing up in the 70's and 80's, the MPC era to me is what the postwar era is to people that grew up in the 50's and 60's. I couldn't wait, and still can't, for the next catalog to come out.
That's a really nice set!

Thanks AO. It really is a nice set. One of the nicest Lionel has made. I can still remember the frenzy and excitement this caused when it came out.
