LIONEL TRAINS OPERATING BRONX ZOO CAR No. 3386
The Operating Bronx Zoo Car No. 3386 was issued uncataloged in 1960. The giraffe would lower its head to clear the telltale (Part No. 3424-100) that was attached to the track. Built on a modified BLUE plastic 9-1/4" cattle car with WHITE heat-stamped lettering, the only difference between this car and No. 3376 is that this car has arch bar trucks that have solid non-operating couplers. There are no variations.
