I can't take my eyes off the polka dots. One of my favorite pieces by AHM. "Itsa wonder
they call it bread." Actually tried some the other day, it's actually pretty tasty. Best bread
I ever had was in Eilat, upon the Red Sea in Israel. Seriously, the stuff was like biblical.
You could thrive on this stuff, so dense, full of flavor, rich, and crusty. I cannot find it
this country.

Nice Chops! One day I'd like to get one of those.

My COTW offering is this Union Pacific All-Door box car, made by AHM. Gotta love an All-Door box car.

Second to last piece of rolling stock I have bought a few months back. Don't really want or need anymore!

Nice crummy, Busss, but it wasn't from me! That looks like a cross between
Hyponera and something El Rojo Grande would do.

It's hyponera. He modeled the NMN then decided to give it all away for some reason. I'm honestly not sure why.

Yep, I sent it. But I have not given it all away. The NMN is still alive and growing. I build 2 or 3 identical locos that differ in number only. That allows 1 loco to stay here and 2 to send to friends.

OK! I am thinning my herd down these days, rock bottom low prices.
Still, after posting about 60 items, I have barely trimmed the grass.
The auto racks and the piggy backs are fairly prime, rest of the stuff
is fairly average. Starting prices are hilariously low. Deals offered on
bundles. Chop, chop, chopping down prices to new lows! Beyond
bargain basement. Fiends and Family discount to all TFers, sorry Busss,
it ain't free.

Some of Hyponera's awesome New Mexico Northern.

I'm sure something could be arranged.

I just happen to have a pile of money to spend Chops. So where is the Armadilloville Chop Shop, so that this fool and his money are soon parted?

Any photos of what you're shoveling out? Train shows have been cancelled and we have a buyer's market out here!

PS- I'd like to take advantage of the "Fiends" and family discounts. I guess Halloween is right about the corner!

I put and ebay link to Trading Post, to my surprise it only showed like one or two pages of the sixty items I am selling off. So if you click on the "see sellers other itesms" on the succeeding links, hopefully that will get you to all five pages of insanely cheap Tyco stuff, a little LL, one or two Bachmann. First come, first serve. Deals on bundles, all shipping bundled. I only send stuff insured because when I don't disaster strikes. PO is very, very careless with the uninsured stuff.

I know these do exist but I have never seen one either- just plenty of Santa Fe and Penn Central.
