    Description

    Lionel VW Trainmaster Transformer Controller from around1948/49 black Bakelite. No real damage except age related wear and tear and corrosion on bottom and on "L" emblem. Seems to be working. Both bulbs (red and green) are working light bulbs but one side isn't lighting up for some reason.  I haven't tried it on a train but I took voltage readings from all of the controls and the readings were as follows:
    Posts (all AC volts)
    AU 16.2-18.5
    BU  3-28.6
    CU  3.2-18.5
    DU  8.9-18.5
    and the Whistle switch on both sides makes the AU posts go from 4.4-22.1 and the DU posts go from 4.4-22.1
