I am into HO slot cars not trains so I know nothing about trains. My friend has this mint in package HO Scale Electric Train Set "Big Thunder" You will see the picture below. its a chessie system #4810 B&O if that means anything. anyone know how old this is? and the value? or is this the most common Ho train that you all see all the time. I did try ebay but i dont find anything like this. Any info would be appreciated!!

Thanks
Wes

It ain't valuable, and judging by the price, it ain't that old, either. Generally, HO trains aren't real collectible - the early "O" and "S" scale trains are the ones that bring the money. Some early Mantua/Tyco trains bring a little bit, but even then it's not huge money.

thanks for the info. my friend traded the set for ho slots..

Thanks
