First of all, a BIG thank you to "Brigham" for refusing to take any payment for the 4 pin starter he sent me, what a gent! So my Eight ball special now LIGHT UPS YAY @&@ I was lucky enough to pick up the three Jennings from a local operator who passed away recently. These saw service in Great Yarmou...

Most have every other escalator stub removed to allow two pulls for one coin. This is not a perfect way of doing the two pull idea; the c...

BP, I am trying to arrange a viewing. It is part of an estate sale. It says an empty gap in escalator indicates free-play, so the hardware must be on the escalator! If I get to view it, will post the pics here!
