Maybe I'll move to Nebraska. Out here lucky to get 3 inches
of rain a year and the sun is out 360 days a year...

Interesting WM boxcar. Will we ever know where that one spun off
from??

ok 2 more cars for the week & I only gave a buck for this 1st one

Shoulda got the Bachmann triple dome Exxon one for the same price

this will make 3 Chattanooga cabooses I have $2

this one is possibly the one made by IHC when they took over the Tyco line
Since the trucks are modern ones

Moving "upscale", my Lionel is 0 gauge. Just needs a new chopper, this one is a bit beat up. Been getting some of the more interesting Lionel cars of late from the shop.

I admired Walt's Niagra hopper so much I had to go out and grab one for my own
collection. I also got out bid by 50 cents on a set of four Eggo box cars.
