All -
The remaining few items all have something incomplete or damaged. It may be stuff I should junk, or maybe someone wants it to fix up, or for parts, etc.
If you see something you want, it's yours for the cost of shipping, which I can quote you once I know your address. Then you can decide if you want it. First one to PM me with their address gets it, OK?
First is a Bachmann chassis to a U-33B diesel. It is 7 1/4 inches long. No shell. This unit was not running but I soldered the wire back to the pickup and now it runs pretty good. Needs one traction tire. Horn and hook couplers.
Next, a Union Pacific Alco FA by Lionel. The shell is missing one rear step and also the front decal has parts flaked off. I worked on the chassis and it runs now but I had to secure both truck pans with screw/bolts because one plastic tab was broken on each. No couplers installed. No light. One plastic drive wheel has a portion of the flange broken. In short, it runs OK for now, but maybe you should think of it as a dummy.
I found one of the crossbucks that go with the crossing shanty accessory so am offering it up. The light works and the crossing guy pops out whenever something goes over the track. Cannot find the other crossbuck.
This streetcar named Desire is unpowered and has no light, I guess it's intended as scenery.
Finally, this 60' Bachmann 3-dome tanker has a few stray paint blobs but otherwise presentable. It is labeled White House Apple Cider Vinegar. If you put regular trucks on it, it doesn't seem like it would work well. I think it needs trucks with a longer coupler, like some caboose trucks.
I would like to say how much I have enjoyed this forum the past couple of weeks. Thank you for your interest in these HO cars and other material.

The UP engine and the tanker have been claimed.
Trolley is pretty hideous, couldn't even pawn it off on the local pre-school teacher, aka, my wife.

...when my kids were small, they'd want to play with daddy's trains...they could see right thru those cheap trolleys too. They were offered as a two piece set from Reader's Digest and are regularly sold to unknowing beginners on eBay as dummies...

The crossing accessory only has one cross buck if I'm correct.

| If you still have any of the stuff and its "free" (subjective word here) I have interest in the U33B frame, especially if it works ok!
