Year made and price of an old model train?

Question

1910 Chattanooga Rail line Replica model train, made by Baldwinn Locomotive works /Bachmann Industries Inc of Philadephia made in China Electric large scale

Answer 1

Being a larger scale, it is of course more pricy.  Bachmann has been around for quite some time, but is not really a major player in the modelling market.  Bachmann's "Spectrum" line of models is very nice, with good detail and smooth running locomotives.  For this reason they are comparatively expensive.

As a model, your piece may not be in high demand.  For a collector, however, your's may be the missing piece from a collection.

Find a reputable hobby shop that specializes in model trains in your area and take it in to get an honest appraisal.

If you can provide more details by updating your question you may wind up with an accurate appraisal right here.  Most rail road modelers are nice and helpful folks, but there are vultures in any field, so don't be too quick to sell.

Hope this helps.
