Lionel Trains Fork Lift Platform No. 264The Operating Fork Lift Platform No. 264 was available from 1957 until 1960 and it was one of the last of the unloading accessories that Lionel made during the post war period. Similar in operation to the Lionel Milk Cars, the lumber would be loaded manually on to the No. 6264 Lumber Car (included with the platform) and the busy fork lift operator would unload lumber (No. 264-11) from this car and place them on the platform. Twelve pieces of this lumber were available for separate sale under the number 264-150.

No. 264-11 Lumber

Lionel issued a special instruction sheet No. 1733 in 9-57 that they labeled "IMPORTANT" that was included with the platform. This sheet instructs the owner to install of the stakes on the car with the flat side facing in to prevent the fork lift from riding the sections of lumber up the edge of the stake. Also, it suggests that if there is hesitation in the operation of the fork lift then the surfaces should be cleaned. Lubricants of any type should not be used.
