My Trains

personal collection of model trains

 

This is a Mantua GP-20 engine just like my Grandfather had.

I believe these were produced in the late 1960's and into the 1970's . My grandfather purchased his new sometime in 1965 or 1966 and I found this one on ebay still in the original factory shrink wrap. The box has some shelf ware which can be expected after 35+ years but the engine inside is absolutely mint and untouched. The box logo and styling indicate this one was made in the early 70's near the end of their production.
