Offices of the Railroad Craftsmen occupy a small (some would say, very small) place in Armadilloville. A purchase from RP Model Railroads.

* Today is a good day to share something different. Here is a paper and wood building of a old Victorian home. A detailed filled building from a time long gone. I just finished repairing the front entrance that was broken when I got it with the entrance roof off and front columns missing, and fell further apart just from touching it. frank

Funny how Tyco trends. While back, couldn't find a Sanka hopper for love or money, then I found a pile for under $10 NIB. Then there was the elusive Bubble Yum car. The bidding on those went wild, but the last one I saw never got one bid. Now the structures seem to commanding a finger scorching price.

I believe that buss has wanted the 7-UP building since the beginning of my forum membership. I guess I am going to have to go on Ebay and buy one and send it to him, just to end this chapter of, I wants the 7-UP building...
