First a Note About Appraisals and Train Values

We can NOT give appraisals or values of your trains. Unfortunately, this is not a service that is available through our club under this venue. Like any collectible, condition is paramount to their value. Age does not necessarily ensure that they are valuable either.

The LCCA "Ask the Expert" program connects members with other knowledgeable experts to answer their questions about Lionel trains and model railroading.

Key features:

• Expert Advice: Get answers from experienced Lionel train enthusiasts and professionals.

• Frequently updated FAQ: Provide the latest information and answers to common questions.

• Community Engagement: Engage with fellow members and experts in a supportive environment

By joining the LCCA you may sell your trains to other members using our publication The Interchange Track and online service  eTrak. The Interchange Track is viewed by many as a "pricing guide" of actual trains for sale.

We also as a club entity do NOT buy trains. Our members do buy them as individuals as mentioned above.

Otherwise, need to know something about Lionel Trains? We probably can help. First of all, check our Frequently Asked Questions page and see if we have already addressed your question.

If not, contact our "experts" at  expert@lionelcollectors.org or use the form below and we will try to answer your question and then consider adding it to our list of FAQ's. We will try to get back to you within 1 week with either an answer or follow-up discussions with you.
