These were the only cars I got at the show. Three ore jennies, $6 for all. Going to add more weathering and kadee them. I believe they are Atlas as it says Austria on the bottom.
Almost bought a Tyco jello car for $5. I wanted it, but don't know why I didn't get it.

Yep, gons will getcha. This LL Potlatch I saw at the very early stages of my journey down the Slippery Slope. While not Tyco, of course, I was drawn to this white as snow gon with bright green letters and I couldn't get my wallet out fast enough.
Yeah, the Jello's are fun, but they are common as fleas on a hound. Offer $3, I'm sure you can pick up a few. The Jello hopper and box car greased the slide into Tycomania for me.
Nice old box, Frank. Always so cool to see (as Busss pointed out) road names when those road names ruled the rails.

I like that caboose, Busss I guess because of the colors and you don't see them often. I was thinking of making you a sale offer. I noticed a few scuff and marks so I enlarged the photo. Has just a bit more scratches and marks than I would like to get. But it's still a neat piece...
