History
The 3419 Flatcar with Launching Helicopter was produced for seven years.
The flatcar is extremely common, however there are some unique or unusual
variations to this car. A single web page could not even begin to describe
every variation. For simplicity, the common variations will be documented
on this site with a few unusual ones mentioned for reference purposes.
The 3419 is part of Lionel's "Space & Military" series. As with many of the items from that series, there are delicate parts that are prone to damage due to improper handling. Locating a complete, all original flatcar with helicopter is a difficult task as few helicopters have survived intact.
Features
Standard features of the 3419 include: unpainted blue flatcar with white lettering,
AAR trucks, black tail support structure, winding and launching mechanism plus a
brakestand with metal brakewheel.
As the production cycle evolved, so did the variations. Listed below are some of the more significant changes in year order:
