My brother had a couple of unique pieces. There was a steam engine where the arms on driving wheels actually moved and you could put lubricating oil in the funnel and it would smoke. He also had a radioactive car that would glow in the dark as the train went around the track.
I remember the steam engine having “Pennsylvania” on the side of the coal car. I can’t even find an image of the radiation car that I remember. It may have been a flat car with a radioactive waste unit in the middle. It seemed to me to be a box car, but my memory may be way off by now.
I imagine they would have been valuable today if they had survived the fire.
