old lionel train stuff

Came across a box of old tracks, buildings, telegraph poles and lights and towers. no cars or engines. all i know from doing a little searching is it is pretty much all pre war era stuff. looking to sell it off but i have no idea what the value of this stuff is worth.
anyone out there have an idea or suggestion?

here is a pic of some of the stuff

Ebay and let the buyers set the price. I would make it a long auction collectables have a very small target group. give tehm time to search it

Check ebay for pricing before you put it out there.

you would be wiser to sell the acceseres. sp. one at a time. use to sell on e-bay and sometimes you get that person that wants one thing. do your research in advance and plan to get a min. of 10.00 on each auction. any questions, p.m. me

put them back alive. i do have grandkids.

I have a friend that collects sitting right next to me and he says don't give this stuff away its worth around $25.00 a piece.He says there are some collectors that target the pre-war train stuff.He says this stuff is very hard to come by maybe even worth more.
