“The Lego 7857 Crossing Electric rail is a re-release of the lego 756 Electric Crossing, but has a different color scheme. In this version of the crossing rail, it includes 5 pieces, and the color is changed from that baby blue color of the rail to a new sleek grey look to... More appeal to wider audience. The track still works the same as the 756, but was a different color and same amount of tracks.”

“This set contains a single rail crossing for 12V trains and comes with 4 sleeper plates. The crossing tracks are electrically isolated. A version for push-along and 4.5V trains is available as set 7853. The grey era came with a great number of track options and accessories.... More Most were released in 1980, including this set 7857.”

About Trains 4.5V / 12V

In 1972 LEGO released the 4.5V and 12V train sets as part of the Blue Era which was named because of the rail color. These train sets used additional conductor rails mounted between the standard 4.5V rails and 12V motors contained in the same housings as the 4.5V motors, but with additional metal contacts attached to the bottom of the housings.

4.5V / 12V consists of 83 sets that ran from 1972 to 1986. As of today, 7750 Steam Engine with Tender is the most valuable 4.5V / 12V set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $6,957.
