    Original American Flyer from the late 1950's. Close to new, all original & fully intact, no rust. Patina & lettering very nice and bright. Cleaned and ready to go. May have a few slight marks, but overall looks close to new.  Hard to find in this top condition. High collector quality. Reduced shipping cost for multiple items. Outside continental US, buyer pays actual postage.
    This is the highly desirable American Flyer 23785 or 785 Operating Coal Loader. It comes complete with the controller, coal tray, AF #23 bag of coal and the original roof. It also has a copy of the instruction sheet. This was one of the most expensive accessories and thus is somewhat rare. It looks pretty much used very little.  We didn't even have to clean it, it looked so nice. We did test it though and it works very well. It does have a few of the usual coal rub marks mostly in the back, but otherwise it looks close to new. This one has the rare red painted roof which looks close to perfect. The paint and patina are exceptionally nice and it looks like it was painted yesterday, not 60 plus years ago. All of the metal parts are very bright and shiny and look new. One of the nicer we have seen.   The coal tray is one of the cleaner ones that we have seen and is the uncommon gray one.  .  This one was kept in California since it was sold in the late 1950s and is thus without rust or the usual corrosion. See photos to confirm condition. A nice and new addition to any collection.
