The proprietor of my LHS has an illness. I've termed it "C-Liner-itis". Somehow he's accumulated over 30 old c-liners, all intact and good shape, in what's gotta be at least 20 different roadnames. Never knew they made so many. Once I found them all and put them in a box to show him, he decided he wanted to get rid of them. Anyone need a particular C-Liner for anything? Also, F-Unit shells by the dozen in a large crate, if anyone wants any, as well as a bunch of old plastic steamers (4 or 5) for junk. They're open the 1st saturday of each month and I'm there every time. I'll post neat stuff I find there and if anyone bites, I'll get it for them next time round.

I collect AHM/IHC C-Liners.... Where is the LHS located...???
There are 3 main variations....
1) The Black plastic hatch cover behind the top of the cab, which is sometiimes missing. 2) A solid hatch cover. 3) A fan behind the top of the cab that is molded into the shell.
The IHC C-Liners use a different motor set up. amd the inside of the shell is slightly different.

and no pictures?

I don't have a one track mind. It depends on the turn-out. "I love your catenary!" Is that a power-trip or just another pick-up line?

I would be interested in B&O and C&O roadnames if he has any.

A Texas Special and a Southern or Seaboard will be cool. I would be interested in the steamer junk.

Apologies apologies for the no pictures on anything yet, I seem to be a bit technologically impaired of late 
AFKid: it's in Titusville NJ. I'm pretty sure they're all AHM, I'll test each one and have a list with pics and prices as soon as I can (on the 7th.)
Microbusss: I didn't ask a price last time but I know he wants less than $10 each, and not a one has any problems that I could see.
AMC Gremlin and redneck Justin: I know there's at least one each C&O and Southern, almost positive there's an ACL one in there. No B&O though.
toptrain: Yes, he really is open one saturday a month. It's a shed full of, as near as I can tell, the trash of a thousand model railroaders of decades past. The newest thing in there is 35+ years old (a battered American GK E60C-2 which will be MINE soon ), and there's everything back to WWI-era large scale. But it also has proven to be a ceaseless source of interesting stuff.

No BN, rock or CB&Q. One, maybe two UP and I seem to remember one Rio Grande. There's like three Northern Pacific ones though.

What about a Wabash unit? If you see any with a 3 digit Number that starts off with 0, those are for a Lionel by Rivarossi.
