    This kit was manufacture by Classic Models Corp. of Laurel, Maryland. It consists of the engine and 4 cars. I assembeled the two shown in the photos. Three additional passenger cars are still unassembeled in the original boxes. The engine is a 12 volt powered worm drive. This is all I know about it. I have all the original boxes including the box it was shipped in to New Orleans but there are no dates. Classic Models Corp. no longer exists and I have not been able to find any other existing trains by them. HELP!!!

      I have a similar engine, but it has a separate tender instead of the built in one. I have about six boxcars they made also. One of the problems is no one knows who they are so when for sale, they get listed wrong.

      I paid about $175.00 for mine about 6 months ago.
