Now that George Tebolt & Schmitty have passed on, pre & post war Lionel parts are getting harder to find. Jeff Kane, John Malima, Paul of 'Trainworx" , Joe Mania, & myself are hard at work trying to track down the molds and tooling We have both jointly & individually been sucessfully providing items for individuals & dealers this past year. We recently made available the #154 crossbuck, & GG-1 white & black insulators, ( pantographs will be available in May ). Joe is producing many of the pre-war stampings from the MEW tooling, as the tooling is identified. Jeff & John are both producing many parts. I am still working to find who made many of G. Tebolt's parts. Any information on Co's w/ tooling would be appreciated. The Old Man
