Frequently asked questions
How much is LEGO Western Train (726-1) worth?
LEGO Western Train is worth approximately $1,463 on the secondary market today, based on current listings and completed sales. BrickStats updates this value daily.
Is LEGO Western Train retired?

Why is LEGO Western Train so expensive?
Western Train was released in 1976 and has since retired. Once LEGO stops producing a set, the only supply is what is already in circulation, so sealed copies in good condition compete for a shrinking pool of stock. That scarcity, not the parts, is what moves the price.
