Dear Howard I'd guess the Peare are more than fifty years old, probably going on sixty. He mostly made O scale track, so these are probably from some of the same rail (although quite a few O scale modelers back then used the even more comical code #172) to accomodate AF wheelsets and drivers. That long ago there was very little true scale S. Peare was located in New Jersey as I recall, and, I think, for a while had the remains of the Westbrook car kit line.
