Another Lionel HO post to OTWs, this one came to me yesterday at a big indoor flea that is held monthly. Guy had a whole lot of Marx and Lionel HO stuff, so I bought it all for $50. This neat accessory is probably pretty rare these days, the HO version of the Milk boxcar, which actually operates! Unfortunately, the tiny milk cans are missing from this set. I will try to locate some via Internet searches. But it's in fine shape, the seller said it operated fine.

For my AOTW:
My very first HO scale bus:


Just puchased this weekend. More than I wanted to pay, but a fair price considering everything else that came with it.

I think I have room Ken,
Half of what i have is in storage anyway! Besides.. I sell more volume than I buy... Well, that's true sometimes...
Some of the bins stacked to the left of center in this photo I have already brought home and put on the shelves in the addition:

I have three shelving units in in the addition with a little room for more... LOL! If my wife does not kill me before I do!

I don't think I need to worry about that one bus. Bought a small trolley collection last week. I'm doing OK in that regard I guess...








I have sold three so far... made back ~1/5 of the purchase. Need to recover 100% before I can let myself keep any.
