The Lionel American Flyer Big Boy was delivered in December 2009. It sold for approx. $750 retail. Thank you for watching.

I did not know they still made American Flyer trains. Quite a load for that locomotive to pull.

@dv713 The cars were either new cars, or original American Flyer cars with new wheels. They were all easy rolling. Thank you for watching the Atlantic Coast S Gaugers videos!

Holly Crap this is long. I feel like I'm back in high school siting on my old school buss waiting for the train to pass.

Impressive! :) When did Lionel come out with an AF "S" gauge Big Boy, & what were they selling it for?

Gotta say that these new sounds just aren't up to snuff. Give me the old 1950s chuff chuff chuff instead.
