Lionel 3413 Vintage O Mercury Capsule Launching Car VG

This is the Mercury capsule launching car from the Lionel 1960's Military and Space era. You can actually launch the rocket from this car which has a mercury capsule at the top with a parachute attached that is hidden inside the rocket. The idea is that you remotely launch the rocket and when it reaches its apex the capsule separated and parachutes safely back down to your layout table.
