...and on e-bay "completed listings".  Search both spellings (dockside and docksider)

2001 catalog shows MSRP of $34 for Dockside SF #52652 and B&O #52662

If you put up a picture of the box and its stamped end flap, and a close-up of the loco,  people could give you a closer estimate of how old it is.  

By its box number I'm pretty certain it is older than 2001.

Hope this helps.

Edit:  Added link, added "and a close-up of the loco".

If it runs and is in mint condition, I have seen them sell for $35, if it doesn't run you can still get $12 for it for parts, in non mint you may get $25 if it runs.
