I just got this today. I had never seen one like this. It is unopened and looks quite different from the Typical Tyco switch and controller.

I remember TYCO switches (the manual ones) also came with a little plastic lantern that you palced on top of the switch´s box and when moving the points of the switch the lantern turned 90 degrees to show a different light to the main track (lanterns were all black)....does anyone know where to get those little lanterns???...that manual mechanism was great!!! I still have 2 switches of those but no lanterns....

I seen these in the '72 Catalog. Rarely show up on eBay in that nice shape!
