Recently I cleared out a rather large box of Lionel “miscellaneous” from an estate sale. Mostly postwar, it had a lot of 027 track, some transformers, and broken accessories, etc. It was obviously a catchall from a time before the kids grew up.
The picture is of a couple of stamped metal plates that was in said box. No identification marks. They might not even be associated with trains at all. Any idea what they came from?
