Lionel 6-12782

OPERATING LIFT BRIDGE 1991-92

 

Produced by LIONEL in 1991. Light grey structure, black ladders and catwalk detail. Extremely large (29 1/2" x 8" x 19 1/4"). Modeled after #213 in 1950 but never produced. When LIONEL operators and collectors saw this, their reaction was "WOW". This was the largest accessory LIONEL ever made and will not fit in most car trunks. It needs its own power supply to operate properly. A rectangular box is supplied that controls all action from raises and lowers, blasts the warning horn, rings the bell. A single motor operates the gears, pulley strings, and warning lights. a yellow/green strobe light rotates atop the piers while power is ON. The upright spans are illuminated. As counterweights keep span raised, power to trackage is cut. Given that this accessory is so large, it is in great demand by operators and collectors alike.
