Man, chewa on this selection.  Bought cheap at the Shenendoah show last month, a nicely preserved MStL boxcar, with sliding doors and metal base.

A pair of Tyco - Mantua gondolas. Both PRR but numbered differently. Both are original.

My COTW is yet another Ambroid Combine Work Caboose... Came as a ~$21 purchase, incl s/h. Not bad if you ask me...

My COTW is an Old Time Gondola. I have been having this car since the 70's.
It is pulled by a Casey Jones 4-6-0 Steamer.
At one time I was going to sell this car along with another Old Time Water Car.
Not sure now.

I know that. Bought the car with no body and want something different.
