Here's an interesting little mystery item. While technically not a toy train accessory, it certainly works well as one! It's a tinplate powerhouse facade with a lineshaft and pulleys for connecting up other accessories to your steam powered plant. Anyone have an idea who might have made it? There is no maker's mark on it. The litho for the factory interior scene on the back side is incredible! Also alongside in these photos are some Ives One Gauge- a 3239 and a 3240. This particular 3240 needs to find a new home by the way in case anyone out there is looking for one.
