Vintage American Flyer 960, 962, 963 Blue-Striped Passenger Cars

Description

Vintage American Flyer 960, 962, 963 Blue-Striped Passenger Cars.
These blue-striped cars, the 960 “Columbus” combine, the 962 “Hamilton” vista dome, and the 963 “Washington” observation car were produced in 1954-1955.
These plastic-molded, streamlined satin silver cars were illuminated with silhouettes.
They were highly detailed and had a sheet metal frame riding on a four-wheel passenger truck with knuckle couplers.
These cars have been in a collection for over 50 years, so I’m certain it they will require some TLC.
They appear to me to me to be in Very Good condition but please refer to the pictures to determine the condition;

Photos tell much more than words. I make an effort to include well lighted photos that are bright and clear  that show many different angles. The photos show much detail and are the most important part of the description. I will also provide a reasonable detailed description of what I have found through research as an addition to the photos. Between the two you should be able to ascertain what you are bidding on. Should you have any questions or need additional information, please ask in advance before submitting a bid or making an offer.
