Hey guys. Would anyone happen to have a few of Tyco's fluorescent streetlights kicking around? They don't need to be in perfect shape, I can repair as needed. Would prefer uncarded as I want to use them on my layout.

GOOD LUCK! I been searching them out locally and have come up with absolutely nothing but. DUST! Dusty packages that were 100% empty and no lights to be found. ERRR dirty trick at the last train show.....

I figured this was a long shot.  I picked up three of them at a train show a few years back. Three is enough for my main straightaway, but I wouldn`t mind having a couple more throughout the track. Not too many mind you...that would just make re-slotting cars a pain.

3-5 more is probably all I'd need to light my straights. If someone had a whole box to sell I wouldn't turn it down, but realistically a few more would be enough for my layout.

I have collected 100 of the Flourescent lights by Tyco to use on a large 4 lane someday. Since I ahven't bought a buillding to house this extreme layout yet... I will give up 4 of my loose poles for you . These all work perfectly. I'll grab a couple packs on Ebay sometime. I've noticed that there's not many on auction lately...

No Walt, 'cuz you bought 'em all!
NOW, after Cheez, would have 6 singles you'd trade for something other then? OR what might you want for them if you have any?

| Hey EM-1, I may trade a few of these for something. It took me quite a while to round these up!

Walt,
I bet it did, I have been too numerous shows and have yet to see even one! So, I can't imagine how long it took you to find those!
So, being said that, what ya looking for?

Hey, John. I've nearly bought almost everything I wanted. A few things I will buy or trade for in the future. Tyco Green cab Kenworths. Tyco yellow horse/cattle trailers... Canadian box car, red shock control box car, Tyco Truck terminal kit, are a few I can think of...
