Rivarossi 2-10-2 needing minor TLC: $50
Varney 4-6-0 (needs lots of TLC!) and complete set of Tyco lighted coaches: $75
Mantua 2-8-2 needing a new draw bar (marked as Lionel): $10
American Flyer Oil Drum loader and cleaned motor complete with box: $75
Rivarossi streamlined Hudson: $50

Rivarossi 4-6-2 with a nice repower and Sagami can motor, getting a tender soon (a matching one, not the USRA 0-6-0 one and smoke box door) $12
Had so much fun! Heart still fluttered over that Big Boy!
Once again, no cool under the table junk deals or clunkers.

You got some nice stuff!  I bought a Rivarossi Cab Forward at a show about a year ago for $100. I'm glad to see I didn't get ripped off!
Of course you know we're all expecting to see better shots of those steamers in LotW

That's quite a haul, Justin. You got a good deal on that 2-10-2. Judging by the red cab roof, it may be from a premiere production run.
