I just went to the Puyallup Train Show today and got some pretty sweet things. I got an Athearn 60th Anniversary locomotive which was $30 (which I'll show for next week's LOTW, aka tomorrow ), some cheap 1970's-1980's era H0 scale cars for $5 a piece, and best of all, a sweet H0 scale display case for $40. Here's a picture of the thing.
One thing I just have to say about this thing is good gosh, it's big!

Since you're interested in getting one of those brake vans (yes, that's what the British call it) it's a Bachmann Branchline 20 ton brake van fitted LNER oxide. I literally just read that off of the box that came with it.

Hi kovacste000,
Very nice display case! Much easier to dust than the trains.
Thanks for sharing.
