As I clean out my train room there are several items that I no longer need. I have also come to the conclusion that I only need one of each TYCO/Mantua so I will be thinning those also. I have a lot of doubles and I don’t see a reason I need two of each, I had a epiphany that I did not need to get every train I could get my hands one. Well enough of that, normally I sell on eBay, but I will try this first. Send me an offer, I don't respond to low-ball offers (My wife and I laugh at them) nor do I reply to them. I will be adding stuff over the next few days so here are the first offerings.
Big Boy - runs but missing the light, and a small set screw on one of the valve pipe. Also missing hand rail at the back of the cab.
U.P. 4-8-4 is new.
DD40AX jitters when it runs forward, but rund like a champ in reverse. Missing handrails and not sure if the blinking light on top works.
U.P. AC44-9W - is a dummy missing hand rails, rear right side of the trucks and couplers.
Burlington f7 - runs great.
Gray F7 - Athearn and runs great.
Santa Fe road number 3500 - the top one is great the bottom is missing the front part of the hand rails

Burlington F7 – rubber band unit looks alright needs rubber bands.
CSX SW1500 – Perfect
CSX GP38-2 – Athearn CSX (OP REDBLOCK) Perfect.
TYCO New Haven GG1 – Great loco, small nick in white paint rear (See picture).
TYCO Pennsylvania GG1 – Great loco
Athearn – Chesapeake and Ohio, not sure what this is but it is sweet. The original owner made this from another loco and I have now clue but it is a beautiful runner.
New AHM track cleaner car

Then why don't you post the prices you want? If I were interested this snide sentence alone would keep me from making an offer.

Yep....some idea of what you want would be great. It's not that difficult, is it? 
You probably aren't involved with marketing, hmmm?

I'm interested in the UP 4-8-4, but I'm afraid to provide entertainment for you and your wife. I guess I need to look some where else.
Regards, John

John,
I sent what i thought was a fair offer for the 4-6-4 but got no response. Maybe GG1 should put em up on ebay and get a bigger surprise

| jimandnancy, it's a brand new 4-8-4 and you think $45 is a fair offer. you can look on eBay, the old ones are going for $49, but that's cool, I am going to sell them on ebay...
