Here’s the first item I’ll post today, got it Sunday night from my buddy Joe at the Antique Mall. expandable grade-crossing up to 1 Gauge. Looks like markings may have been on the bottom but I can’t make them out. Tried to put paper over the supposed “logos” and go over with pencil but no dice
Fence is light blue, all posts have their gold finials intact. The posts where the gates are hinges and rest are the same color blue. The gate is metal and just goes from red to white.
Corners clearly had grass at some point. Maybe some signs ? When I bought this guy, the one crossing was facing inward- i.e. the gate for the left side was at the edge instead of looking like a mirror.
With a Bing Combine car
Any help in identifying is greatly appreciated!!! The fence design seemed to match one Bing & one Marklin crossing I saw.
Now, some other cool gets:
Prewar 166 Whistle Controler. Able to get trains to go into F-N-R but cantget the horns to blow.
Thought this was a neat “toy train” history buy. Bag indeed has a magnetic knuckle coil coupled with shoe but sadly no directions
bought this for the same
reason I bought the above. 1957 Walthers O “Specialties” package that was blinds for windows. Looks like it went for $.25 63 years ago ha.
Finally, when I asked about this last one, she said “I’ll give it to you for $5”. I jumped. While it’s not really too tinplate, i thought it was an interesting enough Postwar transformer to post here.
Unfortunately, handle broken and power chord has been ripped off.
I’d like to get it repaired but depending on the cost I might pass. For $5 though I’m happy to have this unique looking and functioning Postwar transformer
