They are clearly not for gauge h0/00, and it's a riddle why these items came along with Grandfathers stuff. I did not find any brand or whatsoever. They date back to 1940 or earlier. Maybe someone can tell me some more about these items? regards, Frank frankNL attached the following image(s):

The height of the destination-display is 15 cm. I looked carefully but couldn't find any names or stamped numbers. regards, Frank
