Clean American Flyer 741A Handcar Shed
Here is a Clean American Flyer 741A Handcar Shed, 1950. It is painted metal with red rubber-stamped lettering. It has a bakelite roof with opening side door. The base has a cut-out to run track, as this came with a 740 hand car. After AF released this, they realized how ridiculous it was that the handcar didn’t go backwards, so one had to lift the roof and turn the car around to get it back out again, they invented the 742 reversing handcar, but had discontinued the shed??? This shows light play wear, EX-EX+
