Lionelski posted:I picked up this tin American Flyer switch tower on Saturday at the Allentown First Frost meet, just because I thought it was cool.
Lighted with manual bell, stands 9" tall. No number on it. I assume that it is large (standard) gauge and pre-war. I can't find another on ebay to learn about it, or it's value (I paid a big $14. on it, a real bargain IMHO).
Can anybody here tell me something about it?
That is pre-war. Could be used for Standard or O gauges. It is number 214 the New Watchman's Switchtower. I believe Flyer referred to it as "New" due to it having an electric light and the previous version #92, was unlighted.
