With a working camera, an almost-cleaned room, and winter break approaching, I can finally deal with the stuff that I had promised people a while back and then forgot about.
Redneck Justin, your Alaska boxcar:
And EM-1, those caboose bits, pilot truck, and if you still have a use for them, 5 packs of NWSL 28" wheelsets.
PM me if you guys still want these... I did something rather dim and accidentally emptied my PM box.
All that stuff at that little one-saturday-a-month train shop is... postponed. The guy who runs that shop gave me a job selling it all on ebay since I spent so much time there! That whole lot of things will probably come back in a month or so. In the mean time, he won't even put these on ebay so I figure maybe someone here could use some:
About 130 F-Unit Shells Only
TEN ENTIRE FLATS FULL OF JUST F-UNIT SHELLS. All makes and models... Tyco, Bachmann, AHM, Athearn, Cox, Mantua, Marx (matching NH A-B F7 pair), a couple Globe and maybe even a Penn Line, plenty of others... A and B units... F-3, 7, 9 and FT... No pictures yet. About 95% have been damaged in some way - paint stripped, custom painted hideously, parts snapped off, chopped up for kitbashing, and some very strange "modifications". $1 a shell.
Also one extremely well-hacked-together Athearn FP7 (!) shell free to anyone who can get a frame to fit it. Entire supply must go - noone can use them here!

yeah, would be interested in seeing all those shells once you get pictures.  Especially the low production like Globe , Penn Line, etc.

About the F-unit shells...
Is there a Bachmann F9 shell undecorated or with its paint thoroughly removed?

Do you have any first generation athearns?
I have an interest in the common Hi-F rubber band drive units, but the earlier ones did NOT share common parts with the second generation Hi-F drives (which are 95% of the Hi F's), and also don't share common parts with the later blue-box F7's or the newer F7's.
I specifically need the horns from such an earliest-production F7 in order to fix the locomotive of my neighbor's grandpa.
Though I have no urgent need for a ton of F shells, I like having spares of everything around. Even at just 20 I see the oldschool value of hoarding

I need a wheel for my Italian Pocher tender. Really small, the hobby shop did not have any. It measures .960" tip to tip (pointed), .250" tread dia., .335" flange dia. One site says it's a 30" RP-25 from NWSL. Insulated on one side.
