Lionel 3444 Vintage O Gauge Erie Operating Cop & Hobo Car VG/Box

Here is a Lionel 3444 Vintage O Gauge Erie Operating Cop and Hobo Car. It is a favorite classic post-war operating car. It has a vibrator motor hidden under the crates in the middle which causes the cop and hobo figures to chase one another around the crates. There is a switch to turn the motor off. The car does not need to be rolling to turn the animation on, you simply need to apply track power and the higher the voltage the faster they go. This car also features die-cast metal trucks, die-cast metal operating knuckle couplers, and metal wheels and axles.
