    Default Hard to find Elec "Train" machine fully restored

    Up for observation is my “elec” 1976 Nishijin “Train” machine. This a very cool machine that raises and lowers a train gate depending on the number of jackpots and which pockets you hit. The number one, two and three light up until the gates stay up. Yes, I know I actually added a video LOL. This one is rather hard to find.

    I have recreated the sticker rather nicely. The key to most of the Nishijin stickers that cover lights is not to use vinyl stickers, as it won’t allow the light to shine through. Make the sticker out of standard paper stickers and then apply clear dura-lar with adhesive. Then you have a practically water proof sticker that light shines through.

    This machine was unsually dirty and the plastics were really sun burnt. Plastic actually begins to break down and becomes brittle with prolonged excessive sunlight. See pics

    Really cool machine. I'm jealous, I would love one to go with my train themed pinball machine.

    Hey I'm new here and I have this same machine that was given to me by my dad. I have everything working except some lights on the board and a spring for the relay on the back that turns the plastic wheel around and the sticker on the front has a small hole on the number one. I was wondering if you have part numbers for the bulbs and other things for this. Any help is very much appreciated. Sticker is great!

    My private message is broken when it comes to sending pictures. I have the train sticker jpg. You will need to provide me a real email address in the private message area and i can email the jpeg for you to print or download it here. Yes I know it is crooked. I printed about five of em before I got the size right you will have to play with it. Not sure if the upload here will work. Also send me your mailing address and I will mail you some free bulbs.
