Can anyone tell me if they make original type window inserts with the painted scene for these stations? I would buy originals if I could find them. Thanks for the help. Eric
Happy Holidays to all...........

Eric, several toy trains parts folks sell the reproductions.

Try www.georgetebolt.com

I bought mine from a table vender some years ago at a local train show.

As the repos are made from the originals - they can be a bit grainy (mine are).

Roy

Thanks Roy, I called Tebolts today and they told me they were the frosted glass type without the artwork. If you bought them, someone must make them or at least had made them. I will keep checking unless someone can come up with a vender. Thanks, Eric

I recall several years ago Lionel alerted all the repo guys about trademark and other infringements. I wonder of this made repos of things like these inserts disappear from the market?
