Lionel 6560 Vintage O Lionel Lines Bucyrus Erie Crane Car w/Gray Cab VG

This is a Lionel 6560 Vintage O Lionel Lines Bucyrus Erie Crane Car w/Gray Cab from 1955. The 6560 Bucyrus Erie operating crane car enjoyed the longest run of any postwar Lionel crane car. At first glance the 6560 appears to be a carryover of the 6460. Externally this looks to be correct, internally it is very different. The 6560 was redesigned to incorporate many cost savings features. This crane car features bar-end trucks, a rotating cab that swivels 360 degrees, a hook and boom that can be raised and lowered, operating knuckle couplers, metal wheels and axles.
