Hey BUSS !
You had quite a day.
So did you get the Seaboard Athearn boat flat car ?
No UP Passenger cars. What were the orange ones ?
So what did you get ?
Was the food good ?
What was the red boxer Tyco train set ?
That sure looks like a UP Lionel GP7 set. $35. If the Geep ran it is a good price. And UP with a matching caboose. Should have offered 25. Athearn drives fit that Geep.
Was that a set of Tyco PRR streamliners ?
So what didu get ?

Ill Do Something Like This For The Show At New Bern, NC. Its A Yearly Event For Me. I Love It. Some Great Trains Have Been Bought For NOTHING. I Got a Box Of Tyco For FREE once. Cause I Bought An Athearn Tunnel Motor. Also Going To The Raleigh Show. Ive Been To The Show And the CSX I-95 Corridor Runs Less Than 100 Yards Away! I Saw The Ringling Bros Train There After Going To The Circus Once.

Hey Buss !
Did the UP buy up those other lines whos names are on the locomotives. Mo-Pack,Western Pacific, and Rio Grand. Those are some very nicely painted engines. Good picks Buss.
