The set has seen some normal prior loving use.Track will need a dusting, cleaning and polishing to obtain maximum electrical conductivity. Most of the tracks have good interlocking plastic nibs, but some tracks do NOT have good nibs; they can still be used, if you use the special metal clips that hold the track together (not included) or glue them together or mount them down.
The grandstand was tested and does make noise, but needs some adjustment or further use (from years of non-use), because one (1) side is louder than the other side. The set looks to be Substantially complete and has seen some normal prior loving use. I do not know if the cars are original to the set, but they look similar to the ones shown on the cover.
They also show signs of prior loving use. I do not think they are lighted. The motors on both cars work, but they do need new tires and a tune-up from years of living in the box to work properly.
