I'm looking for the Tyco New Haven 4-wheel bobber caboose which goes with the matching F9A engine. The bobber doesn't have to be in perfect condition but it should be functional.
Please let me know if you have one for sale or know where I can find one.
Thanks

I've been checking Ebay regularly but no luck so far. That's why I decided to post the request here. There aren't any train shows in my area which have much rolling stock by Tyco. It's considered a 'toy' brand by the so called serious collectors. I've been tempted to get a more common Tyco bobber, like the AT&SF, and change the lettering to NH. It wouldn't be that hard to do but I don't feel right about destroying the OEM livery on a vintage car, especially an original Mantua.

ebay is a fickle place, I have looked for some items there with zero luck, and about the time I decide there's no hope for that - it suddenly comes up in multiple listings.http://tycodepot.com/

No shows around here for a while, but we always get a fairly high amount of the toy brands--Tyco, Mantua, Bachmann, Roco etc. I'll keep my eye out next time there's a show I can get to.--CRC
