"HOLY GUANO, BATMAN!" "ROBIN, BAD CHOICE OF WORDS!"
Those tin-plate trolleys are gonna rake in the $$ for you alone.
Gosh, what a collection, Ken!
Granted, some are quite worse for wear... but sheesh!
If you put the lower-right portion items in an aquarium for a natural fishy habitat, and someone asks why, you can tell them... "Duh, they're SHELLFish!" 
I just had to.
Nice find.

I don't have a one track mind. It depends on the turn-out. "I love your catenary!" Is that a power-trip or just another pick-up line?

i had better let you all know that most of the stuff I got over the last week will be for sale. First I want to make sure I know if I can get them all running. I will post the sale items later. I don't want to sell something that is not working or at least I know what it needs. I have another box coming later this week. Thanks. Ken
