The 224 is one of the few Lionel engines made in both the Prewar and Postwar eras. It features a diecast metal body, motor, 3-position E-Unit, and an operating headlight. It does not have a smoke unit, which is why it was dropped from the Lionel line after 1946 and replaced by the smoking 675\/2025 engines. A 2466W Tender is included which features a plastic shell, metal frame, whistle, operating knuckle coupler, diecast trucks, metal wheels and axles.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrought onto the scene in the late 19th century and continuing use into the early 20th century, the 2-6-2 was a durable little model with some even surviving through the first World War seeing continued use in smaller capacities. These models were used for a variety of purposes from hauling coal loads to pulling smaller passenger cars. The North American model soon became known as the \"Prairie\" model and would quickly become a favorite in rail-yards around the world!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis item has been graded per TCA standards C-6: Very Good based on visual appearance.
