Nice trees Walt. They would look great on your layout. This next photo is a
hot wheels car I bought in Port Jervis NY yesterday.

Thank You, Richard. I'll find a spot for them. I like the color shades on them...

This one simply defies description. Obviously an HO turntable but also without a doubt a one of a kind. This thing is made from solid aluminum billet and has been fully machined. It is so overbuilt it is just crazy! I found it at a swap meet and did manage to talk the seller down. It was simply to weird to pass up!

* Its different and its small size seaming to be one 10" piece of Atlas straight track, puts the length in HO scale to 72' 3". A good length turntable and commonly used up to about 1910. Tyco old timer 4-6-0. 4-8-0, 2-6-0, 4-4-0, 0-4-0, 0-6-0 switchers and smaller 0-4-0t and 0-6-0t tank engines would look great on it. Roundhouse ( MDC ) made short tendered 2-6-2, 4-6-0, 2-8-0 in three different boiler types, with a few different tenders.
* In diesels most first and second generation diesels would fit nicely.
* I would call it very useful turntable. A good find, and one made to last, metalsmith1.
