    Description

    Buddy L standard gauge #80 three stall roundhouse. Would normally be used with a mining train. Made in the USA by Buddy L between 1929 and 1932 only. Measures 35 inches in length, is 33 inches wide, and 8 and a half inches high. Turntable diameter is 12 and three quarters of an inch. Maroon in color, each stall has vertically hinged, outward opening double doors with windows and latches, roof slopes towards the back. The decals feature “BL-12” over the left stall, “BL-14” over the center stall, and “BL-16 over the right stall, “BUDDY “L” OUTDOOR RAILROAD” on each side above two four-pane windows, and a large “BUDDY “L” QUALITY TOYS rectangle on the back.
    This example is in Good (C5) condition, the turntable is detached from the roundhouse and not present. Decals are missing except for the one on the rear as shown. It needs a really good cleaning which would take a while (probably 3-4 hours) with a wax car cleaner, Q-tips and cotton balls, but this would make it look great for the layout. It has been poorly repainted at some stage - the red is incorrect for the piece but the original, maroon color can be seen on the inside and bottom. This is the only maroon version we have ever seen, and is probably the only maroon one in existence. Exceedingly rare! Missing one piece of steel which holds it together. One corner of the roof has a bend in the corner. We have another Buddy L roundhouse for sale on eBay at the moment (green) - please feel free to refer to this piece. If anyone has any information on this maroon roundhouse, we would love to know more about it!
