I got this part in a big lot of train bits. (URL) tried looking it up on Partsref and Peeron with no luck. It doesn't even have a part #. The only reference it has on it is 2-01 on the bottom (unless that is the #, but I tried it also no luck). (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains)

Ah phooey, I was trying to do 2 things at once, it was a Fabuland piece like Ben said. I just got post happy. I'll take a look over on the set database to try to date and reference the other train/Fabuland parts I don't know in this lot. This gives (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains)
