Today, I led my wife out to the Green Dragon, a rather large outdoor/indoor flea market in/near Ephrata, PA with a mixture of old country Amish vendors, and new with the typical plastic trinkets and T-shirts. I did find some good stuff, though. Stopped at one vendor and bought a Slot car police van, then while walking around his booth to the next, spotted a box of HO buildings on the ground, so I asked How much? He said $10 take it all. So I got about 10 decent useable buildings, some parts and pieces to make more, so I was happy. That was the only vendor with any train stuff I found model-wise, but one deal is good enough for me! Here's a few pictures of what I got.

Nice catch Jerry! I see a few building sections I would mind finding!
I'd be interested in the farm stuff, for my daughter and her end of the layout!

| The Frosty Bar looks to be O-scale.

Yes, that is O scale. the two little yellow buildings are N scale. The rest appear to be HO or S scale. I have some 1/43rd vehicles that will go nicely with that ice cream bar.

| National BOH reefer is worth about $30 if all the steps and both decals are intact.
