American Flyer S scale Model Train Bridge #750 and Graduated Trestle set #780. Condition is Used. Shipped with USPS Priority Mail.
This is from a train set that I have had since 1958 or 1959. Included is the bridge and as set of 24 graduated trestles. The bridge is currently on a stand (home made I think) that is same color as trestles. I am also including two tracks because they have been drilled to match holes in bridge. The little house on top lights up. ...In the picture I have it wired to a 9 volt battery but the lamp inside is an 18 volt lamp.
Shipping: In order to fit the bridge in the box, I will have to remove the stands on the bottom of the bridge which you can easily install if you like. Also, the house mounts with 4 metal tabs which would normally be bent. They are straight right now, and I will leave them that way. I just figured out how the lamp is to be changed: Remove the roof by pressing down and sliding it off.
Also, I noticed in some listings that the trestle set comes with some clips. To my knowledge I don't have these nor were they necessary when I set up the track a couple of years ago. The track cross ties snap right on the trestles. I did find it was necessary to fasten the trestles to the plywood base or whatever you are using.
If you have any questions, please ask. Thanks and happy bidding.
