  • Notes
  • Aircastle 14-136EA and 14-152ES are actually chassis for the models 6525, 6532, 6540 and 6560. Please see to which of those models your set belongs to before posting pictures here. As long as you do not find the right model (by looking at the pictures), you can put your pictures here for the sets with such a chassis 14-136EA, showing the name plate, hopefully in big size (933 pixels wide). Later we might be able to move the pictures to the right model. On the schematic and alignment page we find the year 1936. Here would be good to see details of the chassis 14-136EA, for instance the wiring BEFORE repairs or recapping!

    Those models for Spiegel were made by Detrola. We believe it is the chassis of Detrola 136, which has also been made by Detrola for different other brands. See on top of the black name plate the first line reading: "Made in USA by . D. R. Co., Detroit." You see also "Chassis model 136" under the patent list.
