Tomy made this?

ROCKINATOR

I was on Google looking at some different tracks Tomy offers, old and new, and found this[upl-image-preview uuid=1e9b779e-eb13-4e18-aab5-c7921d6e98a3 url=http://blueplastictracks_prod_v2/assets/files/201506/post_235_1435024888_aa008cfe2fcceeb7b840f783c8e777f8.attach alt=image.jpg] I never even knew this existed! A four way point.<img src="/assets/files/placeholder.png" alt="(missing)">

Yeah, melmeyr or whatever his name is has been resisting it since who knows when. He says it was made around like 1970s or somewhere around there.

I have only seen the one in your picture a couple of times. The ones I see most often are these that we have.

Sorry the word is relisting it.

ROCKINATOR

Ever since I came i have learnt so much about Tomy stuff and I think I never would've known about a lot of track pieces and locos existed if it weren't for this forum.

That is one of the definitions of our community here Rockinator. I too feel the same way.

These were not released individually for retail they are from The Plarail Maintenance Set's. Rockinator has pictured the old 4 way track, where as Super has pictured the more common newer 4 way.

Hi Gerisplarail1...Happy New Year!

ROCKINATOR

Gerisplrail deserves a medal! Couldn't even find out what they were on all the wikis I checked.

Super

Gerisplarail1 has been given tons of medals for his knowledge here on the Forums. If he wore all of them I think he would fall over.

I bought these giant points separately but they did, originally, come in this set http://www.ebay.com/itm/TAKARA-TOMY-PLARAIL-PLA-RAIL-Big-train-maintenance-station-RARE-/300984961900?pt=Model_RR_Trains&hash=item46141a0b6c
I bought them because my grandson liked to easily hook them up to the Plarail garage cases http://www.ebay.com/itm/TAKARA-TOMY-PLA-RAIL-PLARAIL-TRAIN-CASE-TRANSFORM-TRAIN-GARAGE-4-TRAIN-INSERT-/290845792186?pt=TV_Movie_Character_Toys_US&hash=item43b7c297ba

A tad pricey for a loop and some special four way points. But worth it if you want/need it for the layout. I Prefer the older one cause the points don't get caught up in the felt.

Very kind words Super and Rockinator. you put a smile on my face I am honored!

ROCKINATOR

You deserve it man. To know that stuff, you're quite an asset to the forums.
