I believe O gauge. Pretty large and that engine is heavy. Still in transit to LA. Well, it is supposedly there but delivery date keeps changing. Five boxes. I warned my sister that it will be a giant jigsaw puzzle. I also noticed looking through one box that some of the insulation on wires is brittle. That can probably occur after 40 years in the basement and 70 years overall.
My other engine and transformer - both pictures grabbed from Ebay offerings. The stream engine and transformer were both originally part of my "starter" set 70 years ago.
