Standard Catalog of Lionel Trains 1900-1942 Buy this book! October 6, 2009
John C. Taylor
As an antique dealer I purchase many price catalogs. I am frequently dissapointed in the pictures, text, pricing, or completeness of the catalog. This catalog was easy to use, had picures of every entry, detailed descriptions of every entry, including minor differences of items with the same Lionel number. As far as I could tell EVERY item was included. Every item had pricing in various conditions.
This catalog is an excellent investment!
Informative and fun guide September 12, 2009
Anthony Biegen (Santa Barbara, CA USA)
My father passed away a year ago and left a rather large collection of Lionel trains. I bought this book to try to determine the value (not for sale) of his collection. All of the trains were there with a description of purpose, model and years made. It was a lot of fun just learning about the trains and seeing them presented in this great book. We are not planning on selling the trains but now we know what we have - more than just the value.

Peter Brownsey (Lowville, NY USA)
David Dole has accurately researched the prewar era of Lionel Trains in detail with descriptions and great photos. If you are collector or just interested in old toy trains young or old you will enjoy this book. The pictures of the actual trains and copies of pages from the old catalogs are worth buying the book for. My grandchildren love looking at David Doyle's book on Lionel Trains.
