Brought some old memories back for me, Rich. Having been around a long time already by 1952, I remember the Bob Peare line, very well. Heck of it is that about that time, I always say, I "fell in with the wrong crowd" and got rid of all my "0" gauge 3 rail stuff and went into Ho-Ho gauge. So began an extended period of over 20 years with that little stuff which, by the time I was in my 40's, I could barely see any more.
But, as I recall, I had two Bob Peare switches on my 9' X 5' table that provided for all of the operational variety that I had available to me. Never did get into any of his car kits, however.

Oh, boy...one of my favorite vintage kit builders, under his Traincraft brand, with a variety of side door and drover cabooses, and worktrain cars, stuff never found in
ready to run three rail. Now if I could just find some of the other similar caboose kits pictured in the Vanden Boom catalog....
