Don McErlean posted:Well I thought that I might add something to this thread that Robert S. Butler started. I noticed what I might call a "small" although perhaps not a "very small" American Flyer (clearly Chicago Flyer) lithographed station that I had and thought I might put some photos of that station in this thread. If I am in error, I apologize in advance.
I am thinking of the "Flyer Town Station" # 96. It contains lithographed "signs" for the Flyer Town Station and for the "American Flyer R. R. ". It also includes the number (No. 96) on the Flyer Town Station sign. It is interesting in that it has a different litho pattern on all 4 sides. Front, Back, Left, and Right are all different. Roof is embossed and Green as many of the somewhat later buildings discussed above are and the platform is cream on top and seemingly unfinished underneath. It is lighted although I would think that very little light would escape.
Don,
The 96 station would be a different class of stations that would be grouped with the 104 station, which is the lighted version.
I suggest we start a new thread on the 96 station, as I know Robert S. Butler has studied them extensively.
