Set Value (New/Sealed)

This represents the current new/sealed value of the set Freight Steam Train Set since January 1983. Medium accuracy
LEGO 7727 Freight Steam Train Set was a 570 piece Trains set with 2 minifigs released in 1983. It includes a steam engine, three wagons and a big forklift.
Freight Steam Train Set is an extremely old and very rare LEGO set. We have not seen set 7727-1 currently for sale online or in the hundreds of retail stores in good/new condition in over 1,444 days. Because of the rarity of this hard to find set the current estimated value of $1,235.64 might actually be much lower than the true value, assuming this set can be found for sale.Because Freight Steam Train Set is a very old set from 1983, finding it in a sealed and good condition might be difficult thus making the true value even that much higher.

Short-lived and iconic — “I guess that the Lego authorities felt that 7730 was a little bit outdated, so they decided to release an improved version. They did well, but it wouldn't last for long until 7727 would vanish from the shelves. It is a kind of funny fact, that some 1983 sets have been sold... More for only two years, while other 1983 sets lasted until the end in 1990.”

“This set reminds me a lot of the 7750: Steam Engine with Tender from 1980, it has the similar style of a train engine and its part of the 12 volt line. This set includes 570 pieces, and of those 570 pieces it includes four train cars, and two minifigures. The minifigures are... More both identical, while the train cars are completely different from each other.”

About Trains 4.5V / 12V

In 1972 LEGO released the 4.5V and 12V train sets as part of the Blue Era which was named because of the rail color. These train sets used additional conductor rails mounted between the standard 4.5V rails and 12V motors contained in the same housings as the 4.5V motors, but with additional metal contacts attached to the bottom of the housings.

4.5V / 12V consists of 83 sets that ran from 1972 to 1986. As of today, 7750 Steam Engine with Tender is the most valuable 4.5V / 12V set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $6,646.
