Here is a Lionel 6-31776 O Gauge 2219W FM Thunderbird Diesel Freight Train Set. This features the Lackawanna FM in gray with 5 classic Lionel 1950 staple freight cars. This set is part of the Postwar Conventional Classics Line by Lionel. All of the pieces in Lionels new series will be made with the same authentic tools that produced their originals. The only exceptions will be those tools that have been repaired or improved over the years. (In the past, some companies have made knock off copies of Lionels original Postwar classics using a process known as over molding, in which molds are made from a real Lionel production piece. Those molds, not machine tools, are then used to stamp out slightly smaller, less detailed copies of the originals, similar to how a copy of a famous painting is made from a photo of that painting, and not from the actual art.

Conventional Classics packaging, graphics, deco, and road names will be true to the original Lionel Postwar style. As faithful as Lionel will be to the original models, the new Conventional Classics series will also make technical and sound quality improvements where doing so does not detract from the aesthetics and integrity of the originals. Each Conventional Classic set will come with an official Lionel Certificate of Authenticity.
