Well anyway Mom & I got there abit TOO early  So I went & took pics of some crossing signals for a friend Then we went back to the antique store where the trains are sold
Someday I gotta get a pic of that section 
Got a few trains Did see a American Flyer tie chucker in S gauge! 
Still want one in HO
Also for $175 there was a whole ATSF Blue Goose passenger train set!
Loco was a Rivarossi 
Oh there was all scales in that section of the antique store
So here is what I got from there
That box is a old Athern box FULL of decals
The tracks are from HobbyTown Didn't know there was one there & I still need moar of those EZ Tracks still 
We also went to the bookstore & the mall Then went home

Ben
Great find. I found this a number of years ago by the highway in a city park in Cheyenne.
Would not fit in the car, so I had to leave it.
