Felginator, Welcome to the group!
Nice Set!!!
Consider how close to the holidays you are. What you're proposing, might keep you from enjoying the set for Christmas. I think they look pretty good for their age. You might want to give the Loco a good cleaning(wheels, gears, drive train) and lube. The cars, well I'd clean up the trucks(wheels and couplers) and just repaint the roofs for now. T-Man has some great "How-To's" regarding cleaning and waxing. That way you'd get a good start and be able to plan the "complete" overhaul. It will take some time to get all that you may need, but it's all out there
You're gonna have a ball!!
