CLEVELAND
CINCINNATI CHICAGO & St. LOUIS RAILWAY
Item
# 12161
CCC&StL
incised in the front of this giant steel switch lock
made by Moon. The dust cover spring is partially functioning
only because there is some break out damage on the side
of the dust cover. The lock appears to be in good working
order although we do not have a key to test it. This
is a hard lock to find from this manufacturer. Most
of these are rusted and severely pitted. This one has
an above average surface condition. Don't miss the opportunity.

UNION
PACIFIC RAILROAD
Item
# 12118
One
of the prettiest cast locks that exists. The Overland
logo lock. This version is the smallest of the three
versions and is in beautiful condition with good spring
tension in the shackle. 1923 Date on the back of the
shackle and original chain and clevis. This one comes
with a home made key that occasionally operates the
lock. Doesn't appear to have been made quite right but
just the right amount of temperament gets it open.

CARSON
& COLORADO RAILROAD
Item
# 12037
C&CRR
stamped on the hasp of this Union Brass hallmarked brass
car lock. Virgin and untouched, this lock operates well
and its only flaw is the dust cover spring has given
up sometime in the past century of its existence. Marked
with the C designation on the reverse of the hasp. The
lock has seen some long service but embodies the essence
of the rugged American West in its history and appearance.

$995.00

& MAINE RAILROAD
Item
# 12035
B&MRR
over S on the back of this brass heart shape switch
lock manufactured by Williams Page & Co. of Boston.
Simply a beautiful example complete and original with
blind rivets which probably dates this lock to the 1870's
at the latest. Strong spring in the dust cover, spring
back in the shackle. No key for this lock but guaranteed
to function or buyer may return it for full refund.
A very nice example from this early maker.

cover. Original clevis and chain finish of this early
and awesome example of early Pacific Northwest rail

VIRGINIA
& TRUCKEE RAILROAD
Item
# 11972
Union
Brass made this nice 1880's vintage brass switch lock
for the Virginia & Truckee Railroad. Nicely hallmarked
on the dust cover and deeply stamped on the shackle
V&TRR. This lock body has never been opened and
repaired like many found today. The mechanicals in the
lock are excellent. The shackle however can use some
help. It functions although has a couple of cracks from
some seriously rough treatment in service. When it succumbed
to the punishment and opened, the end of the shackle
broke off and has been not so neatly repaired. The lock
functions and the repair cannot be seen in the display
condition however if someone were to do this lock the
justice it deserves, it should be re-repaired correctly
and would then fully realize its potential. Even so,
this historic western artifact is from one of the most
sought after roads in the western US and will still
be one of the centers of attention in any western display.

SAN
PEDRO LOS ANGELES & SALT LAKE RAILROAD
Item
# 11956
Interesting
and rare example of a complete lock and key set from
the SPLA&SL. The lock is shackle stamped SPLA&SLRR
in the factory Fraim stamping. On the reverse WS for
Water Service is stamped, but also in the panel ghost
lettering from the same mold used to cast regular
switch locks for the Terre Haute & Indianapolis
Railroad! The lock was not repurposed but rather shared
an identical body casting pattern with the TH&I
lock so the factory reused the mold and temporarily
altered the pattern to fill the lettering. An interesting
piece. The key is a beautiful and seldom offered key
that matches the lock and operates it well. Very difficult
set to find with not many of either half left in existence.

NORTHERN
PACIFIC RAILWAY
Item
# 11897
Northern
Pacific cast early version stair step heart shape brass
switch lock. This is the way we like to find them! Rich
dark brown patina covers this lock and before you start
thinking the paint is a eyesore, that paint is original
NP! It is the lighter brown shade found on the upper
portions of wayside buildings and depots. The lock comes
with strong mechanical springs, clevis, chain and S
hook. What a beautiful survivor with some added historical
color!

This
Keen Kutter style lock is cast on both sides D&RGRR.

but the key guide rotates freely and there doesn't seem
to be anything obstructing so we're pretty confident
this lock operates correctly. Comes with clevis and
chain and nice dark patina. Harder to find cast D&RG
lock.

LOUISVILLE
& INTERURBAN RAILROAD
Item
# 10470
L&IRR
brass locks show up from time to time, but this is the
first cast raised letter L&IRRCo lock we've seen.
This lock is very much the same design as the L&NRR
cast locks however, it has a square shackle! All springs
are strong and the hasp has good tension in it. We don't
have a key to operate but will stand behind it with 100%
money back guarantee if it does not work. This is certainly
one of the nicest locks from this road that exists and
is ready to display.
