Lionel Early Postwar FLYING SHOE COUPLERS, complete, TWO Pieces ,TESTED, NOS, EXC

This lot consists of TWO early coil couplers, as installed on Flying Shoe trucks in the first few years after WWII.

I have tested each one - the knuckle opens and closes, and the coil releases the closed knuckle when activated.

These were either not installed by Lionel in the factory, or were taken off of damaged production items.  Some have had the solder lug which connects to the coil soldered, some have not.

Not many of these still exist 'in the wild'!  Don't wait too long...they may disappear.

Combined shipping is available - Put items in your cart, [DO NOT use 'Buy it Now'] Commit to buy them, then REQUEST a TOTAL to get my discounted invoice. (Do not pay immediately!)  eBay is better at refunding over- payments now, but still keeps ALL sales tax when a refund is processed (so YOU don't get full credit back.)

NEED OTHER PARTS?  Visit my eBay store (several places on this page to click) then browse the categories for the eras / gauges of parts you need along the left margin.  <--  I have them grouped by era, and type of usage to make things easier to find.  Common parts are listed where they were most prevalently used.

I encourage offers if you are interested in a quantity (>6) purchase. Bulk quantities are available (25 or more) on some items.  If you want a bunch, let me know - but DO NOT ask 'do you have more of those'.  That's a violation of eBay rules.  And...I really don't want to negotiate prices on single items.

I am happy to ship worldwide. Duties and Taxes are the buyers responsibility.  

PLEASE leave me feedback when you have received your shipment.  Once I know you have it, AND ARE HAPPY, I'll leave feedback for you.
