810-4 Lego System Town Plan Box : The Ferryboat

This originates from the box of LEGO set 842-2 “Town Plan,” a Sears exclusive set distributed by Samsonite in the USA in 1969, but it likely also relates to sets 810-4 and 205-5, which share similar Town Plan themes.

In this post, we focus on the big ferryboat.

The LEGO ferryboat, featured in the image from sets 842-2, 810-2, and 205-5, is a charming 1960s Town Plan creation. Crafted with basic bricks in classic red, white, and blue colors, it boasts a simple yet sturdy design with a flat deck, a small cabin, and a red roof. Measuring approximately a few studs in length, this miniature vessel reflects the era’s focus on transportation and community.
