Hey Dan I'm 45 yrs old and grew up on tyco. I love how you have all this knowledge on all the history of tyco engines it's truly awesome. Keep it up. Luv the videos
That "Promotional" train set is exactly that. Those were usually given to employees whom were with the company for a long time as a sort of gift and for promoting their business to the available public. (a desktop/shelf display piece).
Pretty wild collection Dan, nice pick ups! The only suggestion I can think of on getting info on that possible catalog mockup consolidation, would be to get ahold of someone like Tony Cook since he does both Model Railroad News and its sister magazine HO Collector, plus he knows alot of people in the hobby, might be a good place to start!
I have an A&B unit of the early metal sharknose diesels. Finding an original Tyco Streamliners set with diesel was a cool find. As far as the silver Tyco sharknose with just the lettering and no striping, it may have been a kit where the owner just added the Tyco lettering. The early sharknoses were offered in kit form. So, it's possible the engine was made from a kit. Also, the wooden track maybe (?)Tru-Scale wooden roadbed on the Rodgers steam engine, and I'm guessing the engine was a Mantua kit steamer with the motor left out.
That's a very nice haul you have, You are very lucky to have a nice collection like that.

You're like a kid in a candy store, Daniel. Nice haul, especially the TYCO 🦈nose locos.

Hey Dan what's the instrumental song during 15-16 wile talking about the second package
I think model trains are cool!
