Massive Lionel Train Collection Sale! Help!!!!

I'm having a Lionel Train Collection Sale and I need help from train experts on pricing so I don't miss a rare piece and price it too low.

The video starts with mostly trains from 1970 to about the year 2000. Stuff made from 1970-1985 tends to be valued on the cheap side (because they were produced on the cheap, so they tend to not be very desirable to collectors). Stuff made from 1986 forward has better value. Note: Lionel will print a date (year) on most of their train cars. It is usually the year that the car went into production. At about the 1:20 mark, you start mostly on what are called Post War trains (1946-1969). The remainder of the trains on top of the tables are mostly Post War too. Postwar trains can be valuable if in pristine condition because so few are. Postwar trains were subject to A LOT of variants, some of which can be valuable due to scarcity. Nothing I saw there stood out to me as a holy grail, but then again it was a general camera sweep from a distance, so that is not to say that there isn’t one.
