Early sections were SILVER in color, while those issued after would be chemically blackened. This accounts for the two of the three variations:
spacer
Variation A: The track has a chrome or SILVER finish. Produced in 1948.
spacer
Variation B: The track has been chemically blackened. Produced 1949-1969.

6019 Controller

We’ve illustrated both Variation A and B sections above. A four line flat cable connected the track to its controller (No. 6019-20) that performed both the uncoupling and unloading functions for all of Lionel’s rolling stock that were equipped with either electronic coil or magnetic operating couplers.
spacer
As many as 40 different instruction sheets have been found for this track section that were printed under No. 6014-16. We’ve illustrated the front and back pages of one of these issued in 1954 below.
