LEGO 162-1 Locomotive is a Trains / 4.5V / 12V set released in 1977, containing 210 pieces. It was also known as Locomotive without Motor and Diesel Locomotive, and the set is built around a non-motorized locomotive design intended for the late-1970s train system. Instructions supported three model configurations: a diesel locomotive, a passenger wagon, and a steam train, so it was also referred to as Locomotive With Alternative Models. No motor was included in the set, but it was designed so a compatible train motor could be added separately.

A new and sealed Locomotive is currently valued at around $428, with annual growth of approximately 4%. The average used price is $81 for those in good overall condition. Based on current trends, this set could be valued near $445 within the next year.
Locomotive is a relatively rare vintage set. We have not seen set 162-1 for sale in primary or secondary markets for over 6 months. Its market value is likely somewhat higher than our estimate. The last brand new Locomotive was sold on eBay.

The LEGO train is the only train children can build themselves. There are building instructions in the boxes, but children can also invent new trains of their own design. You can start with the push-train and later on build the LEGO motor into it. Or you can get a train with the battery motor and have it motorized from the start. The most important thing about a LEGO train is that it can always be rebuilt and extended to suit changing ages and interests.
