  • Patent number: 4199893
    Abstract: A housing having a base plate adapted to be used as part of a toy track is provided. A braking-bar is provided in one side wall, that is parallel to the base plate at the level of the upper area of the wheels of a car to be used on said track and is pivotable inwardly over the track at one part of its length against a spring tension at the level of the side wall. The braking bar will press against a drive wheel of the car and prevent it from moving. A locking member is mounted in the housing and movable between two positions, that releases the braking-bar in one position and that holds the braking-bar in place pivoting inwardly in the other position.
