I got mine in 1961 on my fifth birthday - the bottom-of-the-line Pioneer Flyer with a Casey Jones loco. Now when I got it, I didn't know how a Flyer knuckle coupler worked, which is what the tender had (the first Casey Jones locos off the assembly line had a knuckle coupler). The other cars all had Pike Master couplers. Anyway, the coupler hook broke off and for years I would attach the gondola to the tender with a rubber band. After I got back into trains 25 years ago, I replaced the coupler on the tender.Oh and the original $11.88 price sticker is still on the set box. |
