Starting off this week's SOTW, at the TCA train show I found some BN passenger cars to add to my current consist of 6 I've previously bought. This should extend my train some!  The deal was nice, $10 for 3 cars, pretty cheap for these as they tend to sell much higher on Ebay. I'd previously paid $10 apiece at other shows, and thought that a great deal. Love buying HO at O gauge shows!

$10 for all three of those AHM cars is a great deal! I collected all the CN ones a while back (they're relatively easy to find here) and $10 seems to be the average for one car.
Ken, beautiful set! I'm a sucker for vintage metal streamliners 
I've probably posted pieces of this set before, but this is the first time I've had the whole consist on my layout. Tyco's Penn Central "Inter-City". It only appears to have been made during the final 2-3 years of the Red Box era.

Ken, that depends on what side of the deal you're on!

That depends if you "me" for the "TOO cheap" comment............as you have all seen, I fall into the poo pile quite a bit, and it seems, I've got another round coming up..... I might as well jump in instead of fall!
