Went to my 2nd job after work today, and was chatting with the other tech there. They just got in a big lot of O gauge and HO gauge trains, the other guy started emptying the HO box, wow, what an assortment! Mostly Athearn stuff, some nice items like trailers on flats : Acme, National, Wabash, to name a few. Some other equipment on flats : BN crane, road grader, and a tractor trailer of some kind. A few tyco items, I picked out a coal dump accessory, I have pieces of one, but not a whole one. Many hoppers and tankers, too. Also an SP PA-1 ABA passenger set, looks like it's never been out of the boxes hardly. Not my line, but a beautiful set nontheless. I had the other guy set aside the trailer flats, the equipment on flats, and the tyco dump for me. I just KNEW this job was gonna be dangerous!!!!    One day I may even get a paycheck from this guy. Heh heh!

U gonna be hatin' when you see that BN crane by AHM in the box I'm getting. MINE! Green and mean. I've never seen one like it. This guy apparently loved different rolling stock than just generic box cars and hoppers, although he has plenty of those,too. I got a stack of stuff picked out....
