Switches for Marx
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, March 31, 2001 2:51 PM
I have both Marx and Lionel prewar and want to make a small display area. I need to find switches with a large radius for the 752E and will accomadate the Marx with the gear the same diameter as the wheel. I found one switch, brand unknown that has a Polaris switch machine on it that would work find. Unable to find out any thing about the manufacturer. Help!

Here is a link to the Mercur website:  http://www.merkurtoys.cz/en/  And an e-mail address:  mercur@mercurtoys.cz

(Mercur is in the Czech Republic.  January 1, 2013 was the twentieth anniversary of the split-up of Czechoslovakia.  How time flies!)
