Amongst my search for straight pieces of Tru Scale, I found this! Old store display. Anyone ever see one? Or have photos of one? Needs 2 dowels and a light cleaning

It's not mine yet. Gotta drive 4 hours to get it. I'm debating it.

Probably quite a rare piece these days. Big stores have nothing like this, and the small ones that would by chance have something like this are dropping like flies every day now.
sim-al2
Also since they cut track maintaince the trains had huge trouble making over the railroad by the end

That's a neat original store display, and probably few to find these days. Definitely be worth having if your'e so inclined, dealer items are a rare find. Being all wood, and not plastic, is definitely appealing to me, too!  Nice find.
