a tomy of a different size. - sunhuntin - 11-13-2018

i won gem for $10NZD. i am unsure of age, but guessing early 90s. the seller said it was her sons from 10 years ago, which doesnt quite seem old enough.

it is 100% complete and in great shape. i think the wind mechanism is a bit tired, but still manages to complete a circuit ok.

press the blue button and a bell rings. the crossing arm comes down, too.

nothing except the station and case are marked as being tomy, which explains why parts get lost so easily.

There are six of those on ebay.co.uk at the moment, though I haven't checked them all for completeness. Three of them say they are 1994.

thanks, chrisjo, thats about the age i was expecting. they must have released all of them around the same time. my google and ebay searching shows me two different standard ones and two different thomas ones, not including the HiT version of a thomas one.

ucwepn, here you go. thats a 30cm ruler.
