Set Value (New/Sealed)

This represents the current new/sealed value of the set Railroad Control Tower since January 1968. Medium accuracy
LEGO 340-3 Railroad Control Tower was a 86 piece Classic set released in 1968. It was also called "Signal Box".
Railroad Control Tower is an extremely old and very rare LEGO set. We have not seen set 340-3 currently for sale online or in the hundreds of retail stores in good/new condition in over 2,824 days. Because of the rarity of this hard to find set the current estimated value of $526.90 might actually be much lower than the true value, assuming this set can be found for sale.Because Railroad Control Tower is a very old set from 1968, finding it in a sealed and good condition might be difficult thus making the true value even that much higher.

“The Lego 340 Signal box is the very first building that Lego has made for their Train line. The Signal box is modeled after a real life train signal tower; it includes 86 pieces including the base plate. These Buildings that Lego makes for the Train line during this period,... More is not supposed to have minifigures inside it; other than for decoration.”

About Classic Building

The LEGO Classic Building theme from the 1960s consisted of sets that focused on general construction and architectural design using standard LEGO bricks. Unlike specialized themes, the Classic Building sets from this era emphasized foundational building techniques and allowed for the creation of various structures and designs. It represented one of LEGO's early efforts to promote versatile brick-based construction.

Building consists of 8 sets that ran from 1963 to 1968. As of today, 324-2 House with Garage is the most valuable Building set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $1,135.
