Robotnut Posted May 23 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 ??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eagle Posted May 24 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robotnut Posted May 25 So being that it's described as "O gauge", it was intended as a model train accessory... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
