A. C. Gilbert's American Flyer Trains
1946 - 2010

The American Flyer equipment offered on this web site is mainly for toy train operator enthusiasts.  The trains are in good to excellent condition.  Some may have been mechanically updated and slightly cleaned as well.  The pricing of the train products posted are reasonable and comparable to those offered in the 2012 edition of TM price and rarity guide and, the 2010 edition of Greenberg's Pocket Price Guide.  The train items are within TCA rated guidelines. 

For your American Flyer history, we will briefly feature a famous set, engine, car or accessory in the space below.  The item shown is part of my collection and not currently for purchase but featured as A.C. Gilbert history only.

"Historic American Railroad set #7."  Classic 1989 Lionel manufactured American Flyer Chesapeake and Ohio twin PA Alcos.    The blue, yellow and light gray 8102/8103 units came with lighted passenger Combo 48900, Coach 48901, Vista Dome 48902 and Observation 48903.  The twin Alco PA's, were both catalogued 48102, with the A unit powered with 2 can motors.  The non-powered unit had an electronic diesel horn with on/off switch.  While the set was officially designated as an HAR #7, the train did not carry the usual identifying plaque.
