Location: Lower Mainland BC		Saw one of these in antique store last week. Not my cup of tea but for the train and FL guys, it could be winner.

The one I saw was US$80 (with box)

Here is one even cheaper (but no box):

So I am learning:

"Lionel's original Inspection Car debuted in 1958, decorated in red and cream. Planning to produce another version, Lionel experimented with this baby blue color, very similar to the hue used on the Girl's set caboose. When sales of the original red model did not meet expectations, the blue prototypes faded away into history - until now! You'll want to own this great companion piece to our recently-produced red model from 1999."
