Eagle Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Hand delivered today by two very good friends over 530 miles. Been waiting on this for 6 months. Almost impossible to find in operable condition.

Robotnut Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 Very cool diorama, but what are we looking at ? Is it an advertising piece, like a Baranger Motion or is it a one off art/hobby piece ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted May 24, 2023 Author Share Posted May 24, 2023 Built for Manards. It's a box store like Home depot on a grander scale . Stopped at one in Ohio on the way back from the AF museum last yr. Impressive. Anyhow it's sold by them. It's quite substantial in size . A friend called back in Nov and sent a video from the store in Indy. Tommy had to go thru 8 of them to find one in working order. I'd be Leary buying one untested online. I don't believe the failures are complex. I think the entire mechanism is driven by belts and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robotnut Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 So being that it's described as "O gauge", it was intended as a model train accessory... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
