I remember seeing something similar in a Lionel catalog a while back.  Found the reference tonight, the 6-24108 WW2 airplane accessory is very similar.  I think it has a P51 and a Zero "dog fighting".  I've never seen one, though.

Yes I was really careful to check for clearance before screwing it down to the plywood ,wouldn't do to hit that wall sconce and shear off the prop blades!

Neat.  Something I'll have to keep in mind for the next time I set up a layout at a show.  Have to watch the flight path to make sure the viewing public does not get buzzed, though.

Can do!  Consider it a Christmas present! 

It'll give me something to do while I wait for the 259e I just brought in from the Chugger Barn to come up to room temperature.  It was cold out there!

Man!  I hope that P-47 knows the train is on OUR side!  The Thunderbolts raised hell with the panzers in 1944!

PS:  Lady Firestorm wants to know if the teacups on the wall are Royal Albert!
