       Guides to year of manufacture

       New to this forum and new to collecting Lionel in my advanced
       years though having received my very first Lionel train set 55
       years ago.
       I was looking at engine numbers and was wondering if there is a
       definitive guide to year of manufacture etc.?

       You should pick up the Standard Catalog of Lionel Trains books.
       They are a great reference for dates and variations etc.

       Thanks for the suggestion ChiefMcFuz! Ordered a post-war book
       today off of Abebooks today as well as some Greenberg's and
       McComas/Tuohy pre and postwar.
       That should get me going for awhile.
