This is a very cool looking antique original number 438 switch tower!
This one has a green roof and does not appear to have come with a chimney. I have a different one listed today which has a red roof and a chimney as well !
The paint appears original, with age wear as can be seen.
The back panel with the switches is obviously missing the switches but it still looks great on display or on a layout
Either way, it displays well as is, and I lit these old Lionel buildings up using Woodland scenics modern lighting systems (highly recommended!), so I didn't need Lionel Transformers or the internal wiring and they looked great at night , selling as is for parts or restoration. Photos tell the story.

More Lionel train stuff listed this week from a project that I had done for a friend who always wanted a pre-war layout and so I bought lots of original pre-war accessories, and Trains and we had a great time running them together- unfortunately he has since passed away, so I will be reselling everything, most of it has been purchased from reputable dealers on over the last year, we never got to run or set up some of it, so everything is sold "as is"(I only have a small length of track and one transformer remaining from the layout to test the Trains), but I can refer to the original descriptions from the sellers that I bought them from.
I will be liquidating the entire pre-war layout as well as the Trains, the project was a great success, and the person that I presented it to really loved it, but has since passed, and I am not a train collector, so I am attempting to recoup as much of my expenses as possible. Selling most for less than my purchase price.
Check back over the next month I should have most of it listed by then.
There are some really nice pre-war Trains, rolling stock and accessories to be listed.
REASONABLE OFFERS ALWAYS CONSIDERED!!
