The Lionel Texas Special FA No. 210 was only available in 1958. Equipped with two axle Magnetraction, this diesel did not have a horn, but the powered unit had a light, and was equipped with a three position directional unit whose control lever was adjustable from the top of the body. A single vertical worm drive Type IIE motor powers two axles. The lettering was heat-stamped on these units and the sheet metal chassis have solid non-operating couplers.
In addition to the regular production, this diesel headed up several of the uncataloged sets that were available through Sears. There are no variations. |
