Lionel Coca-Cola 125th Anniversary Vintage Steam O-Gauge Train Set
In Atlanta, Georgia, on May 8, 1886, Dr. John Stith Pemberton, a local pharmacist, produced the syrup for Coca-Cola® and carried a jug of the new product down the street to Jacobs’ Pharmacy, where it was sampled, pronounced “excellent” and placed on sale for five cents a glass as a soda fountain drink. Carbonated water was teamed with the new syrup to produce a drink that was at once “Delicious and Refreshing,” a theme that continues to echo today wherever Coca-Cola is enjoyed. Lionel celebrates the 125th Anniversary of Coca-Cola with a vintage steam set reminiscent of the company’s 19th century beginnings. Led by an early era 4-4-0 locomotive, this colorful ready-to-run train set harkens back to railroading’s early steam era and the exciting beginnings of the Coca-Cola Company. This set includes: General locomotive and tender, flatcar with vats, wood-sided reefer with opening doors and simulated box load inserts in interior, caboose with interior illumination, three straight FasTrack track sections, eight curved FasTrack track sections, a FasTrack terminal section, CW-80 Transformer, smoke fluid.
