I have no idea who the maker was or date of manufacture. Each corner has a slot most likely used to attach to other parts. They came to me with some early Trix Express rolling stock. Would any member care to enlighten me. I attached a few pictures. Best regards to all members. Peter B. mb300e4m attached the following image(s):

But the parts aren't genuine ANKER parts. ANKER was copied by dozens of companies, so it's hard to identify this clone. The picture shows an original ANKER bridge to demonstrate the use of such parts. Regards Markus
