POSTWAR LIONEL 1625 0-4-0 PRR STEAM SWITCHER & 1625T TENDER, C-7 EX, RUNS GREAT

Description

POSTWAR LIONEL 1625 0-4-0 DIE CAST PRR STEAM SWITCHER WITH 1625T TENDER
LOT DESCRIPTION:
As the title says this lot consists of one of  the most desirable and hardiest to find of the Postwar 0-4-0 switches made by Lionel,  the 1625, 0-4-0, Die Cast Pennsylvania Railroad  steam switcher  with the correct matching 1625T Tender that was made only in 1958. The locomotive has a operating headlight and fixed front plastic coupler  and the tender has the AAR Trucks all of which is correct for this piece.   Both pieces are all original Post War Lionel including all original paint, letters and numbers.
DESCRIPTION OF CONDITION:
The locomotive and tender are both in great shape. The loco casting is perfect, no breaks, cracks or chips. Both classification lights (often broken off) are there, the left one has had a slight repair (hardly noticeable).  The front cowcatcher steps are fine. No rust or missing parts, great color, numbers nice and clear, drive rods and wheels all fine as is the front coupler.    A slight ding area around the front headlight (hardly noticeable) and minor rubs here and there. The tender too looks fine, no cracks, breaks or chips on the shell, lettering crisp and clear.     Again, a great looking set that IMHO I would rate as in C-7, excellent  condition but look at the pictures and you be the judge for the pictures are an important part of the description and say more than my words ever can..
WORKING CONDITION:
I have cleaned, lubed and tested the locomotive and it runs and reverses just fine, the headlight works  fine,  the e-unit cycles flawlessly,  no operational issues here at all.
