Vintage Mar Toys Wind-Up Train Set; Engine, Coal Car, Caboose ;New York Central - $40 - (Muscatine, IA)

This listing is for a train set with three cars, an engine, a coal car , and a caboose. The brand is MAR, which is on the front and back of the coal car and caboose. The engine has a wind-up lever , and it is in working condition. The smokestack moves back and forth, but I don't know what that does, if anything. There is a lever on top that lets the train go or not. There is a non-working light bulb on the front of the train. I have tried to loosen it, but I can't. The total length of the engine is 9". It's 2" wide. When the train moves across the floor, it makes a "ding" bell sound. This does not come with any track. The wheels are 1 1/8" apart from each other. There are hooks to attach the next cars on all these. There is not one on the back of the caboose. There is a very small dent on top of the "coal" The coal car and caboose are 6" long.  They say New York Central or NYC. A magnet sticks to these, so I am guessing they are pressed steel. The engine alone weighs one pound. These show normal wear from use, not too bad . The condition of the engine's paint is rough. Being sold as is. Thanks for looking ! I have several shipping options.
