Montgomery Wards and Firestone stores carried a fill line of trains,
Flyer, Lionel, & Marx thru the 40's and 50's. and Woolworth carried Marx.
My first (1944)came from a neighbor who's son was in the service,a "1932"
A.F. passenger set. my first new set 1946 A #310 loco from the Denver
Dry Goods. W.W. Granger, was a wholesale outlet, I acquired additional
sets. 1956 I worked as a LIONEL repairman at Anderson's toy land, station
#312, I could cherry pick thru the new as well as the old trade-ins.
The rest is history, I have some of each, in every gauge and scale, and 5
operating layouts.
