My post from a few years ago
Frank. Hope everything is going well for you and your family.
I may work that Saturday so good luck with your search for those attractive items.
If I am off that day perhaps we can meet. Still cautious about traveling during the pandemic.

On 4/10/2021 toptrain2100@...
NYS of ME New York Society of Model Engineers. train show 4-10-21.
I know I had a good time and found some Vintage HO trains.
Finds from the New York Society of Model Engineers train show today 4-10-21 Carlstadt NJ.
Two vintage steam locomotives from the collection of a long-time club member who passed away. These two are both old Varney steamers with 8 wheel drive. One is a consolidation,(2-8-0) and the other a Berkshire (2-8-4). Both are old diecast metal models dating back to after WW2, and before the 1950’s.
I was told his name is George Mains a member who may have remembered the club when it was in Manhattan, Then Hoboken in the DL&W ferry terminal’s second-floor concourse. His private road name, “Baukee and Mynute” Still garceing the tender sides of both locomotives.
There was still at show’s closing a Pennline Decapod and Mikado awaiting new caretakers of the B&MRR. For me I don’t really consider it mine, tho paid for, for I am just borrowing them from George and promises to care for them and pass them on.
Next are some HO train cars, four 36’ reefers. The first an old wood with paper side model finished in “Old Dutch Cleanser # 293”, and 3 Accurail 36’ reefers.
All four were custom finished by Richard Brower, Another modeler who chose to use rub-on artwork. All four cars are flawless in finish.
Old Dutch Cleanser #2953, Produce Cold Storage #PKSX 7201, Peerless Beer, NX 3061, last IGA Sores URTCo. 18803.
After these are two other cars also done by Richard. The first a Red Ball BORDEN’s Milk tanker in it upside-down bathtub styling laid on a flat car, BFIX 534, and Red Ball Overland Oil Transporting car #101.
The last car is a True Scale wooden work car, I say wood because when first released these work cars were constructed in wood and paper and then redone as plastic. Engineering car MW 533 in brown paint.
It's a heck of a day
