Gang,
BEFORE I go into surgery, its not scheduled at this time, I'd like to see if I can locate a few things....
I have, a Rivarossi Big Boy, in running condition, picked it up in trade, and well, it just don't fit my roam of railroads, modeled!
SO, I offer it to you guys, in trade.....I'd LOVE to get a equal trade for it by means of a Rivarossi Cab-Forward, complete. BUT, I'd also let it go for other items too!
NOW, this is merely a list.....I'm looking for the following:
Multiple GP-30 shells, No frames needed. 6 shells Preferably, Bachmann "train-set" types!
Rivarossi E-8 ABA shells in B&O paint.
Proto-2000 AB Shells of the E-8's, also in B&O paint, IF not complete!
Rivarossi/Arnold N scale Y6b 2-8-8-2, complete! WITH possible matching Rivarossi Vanderbilt tender, (I'll make up the difference with a N scale Rivarossi/Arnold Berkshire tender or something!)
Bachmann Spectrum 2-8-0 with tender, running, plus other stuff.
Hobbytown "GP" type chassis, multiples!
Remember, this is a loose list! (I'm not looking for eveything listed here, I'm merely looking to get equal value from the Big boy, that suits my collection, OR can be made to fit into my collection!
I'm also looking for other items as well, Life-Like Proto-2000 FA-2 shells in B&O paint, as I have undecorated shells that I'd trade in place of as I would rather "re-number" rather then completely, custom paint.
Anyone with interest, PM me on it, Thanks!

John, you had to be online at the right second for that one. It sold so fast it probably gave the seller whiplash.
