Up for sale is a vintage LGB 20539 Nürnberger Bierzug Beer Train Set, produced circa 1989 as a limited run of 1,000 units. This is set number 80, a low serial number example, and features the less common gold nose locomotive, which is not seen on all versions of this set. The locomotive has not been tested due to lack of track/equipment, but it was part of a display collection and appears to have seen little to no use. Features: Original locomotive with gold nose Matching cars from the set (as shown in photos) Limited Edition of 1000- #80 Original LGB box G Scale (1:22.5) Made in West Germany Highly detailed and durable construction Pre-owned and stored in the original packaging. This was part of my late father’s large LGB collection and was stored on shelves in our home. He was more of a collector than anything. All train cars appear to be in excellent condition. I took one picture of one of the tanker cars that appears to have a minor scuff mark on it. May be able scrub off which I did not try. Original box is included; the plastic handle on top is broken off and not included. The box remains structurally intact and displays well with signs of normal storage wear. It does have a black mark on the back of it and the front cover is partially unglued. Please review all photos carefully for the exact condition. Imperfections: Handle of box is broken off and not included Cover of the box is partially unglued (see photo) Black spot on back of the cover (see photo) One of the train cars has minor scuff mark but may be easily removed (I did not try) Great addition for LGB garden railway layouts or collectors of vintage West German LGB trains. This is a desirable collector’s set due to its limited production, low serial number (#80), and gold nose variation. A great piece for LGB collectors or garden railway enthusiasts. Item suitable for indoor or outdoor use.
