There is minor scratching on the cars and train and the transformers power cord is brittle. A couple of the couplings appear to be broken. On some of the pieces of track there is minor metal tarnish. It appears that a couple of ...the buildings had pieces break off and that they were super glued back on but you can't tell. In addition some of the buildings were super glued together so that they wouldn't come apart. There are 5 trees with this lot all have there bases, they can't be seen in the photo but I just found them and put them on after I took the picture.

A pressure type track trip. As well as the plasticville manufacturing co building, plasticville water tower, the plasticville junction and the plasticville 5 and 10 which is missing its windows but is fine otherwise. The plasticville 5 and 10 also includes a brown roof in addition to the red roof on it. There is also one white House and grass set. The last building is the unassembled plasticville Hall. The last accessories are track clamps and the no. 761 signal tower with 2 track trips. The transformer is a 120v. There is also three metal figurines and 1908 Mercedes GP matchbox car.
