Unknown small Standard Gauge tender

you have a Marx "Standard Gauge" tender.  never meant to operate on track, this was a push toy, floor train.  first manufactured in 1933 by the Girard Model Works.

cheers...gary

Gary, Thank you.

I looked further with Marx and found that a train with this tender was also sold by British Marx http://toyandtrainguides.com/m...itish/bmfloortrn.htm, and the auction was in England.

I have one of the British "standard gauge" locos with joy line couplers and the buffers.

Here is a boxed "Lumar-sized" floor train caboose which were slightly smaller and had wooden wheels.

Today I received a mixed lot from an auction (with a CIWL sleeping car which was the reason to bid) and it included a small 4-wheel tender with a gauge of 2 1/4 inch. It looks complete, has no markings and a lot of paint loss; the coupler looks like a AF 0 gauge coupler. Do you recognize this? Would anybody be in need of this (I will ship it at shipping cost, but that it might even not be worth).

Fred, I have 4 or five myself.
