Sunday, we saw a 7-piece Hafner trainset for $165 at an antique store.
I don't know anything about them, but it looked interesting. Not my scale, though.

Here ya go. Some info.
They do seem interesting, and from reading the articlem may be confused with American Flyer.
Just a guess though. Wish you could of taken a pic of them.

I went to my Happy Place, but it was closed for renovations.

Me, too...but the existing light level in the shop was well below anything practical. I only noticed them because my wife saw them and asked me, and I knew nothing at all about them. The set had seen some heavy usage, however, and appeared to have been converted to electric.
I'm not a collector; what I buy I run.
