Hey guys. Today I was at a train show in Kemptville (about 50km from Ottawa) and I bought some neat stuff.
First is a Tyco red box CN F-7. This ones got a few scratches and needs some work, but overall its 10 times better than my other red box CN F-7.

Next are a pair of Rio Grande F-7s. I'm pretty sure these are early red box Tyco engines. The powered unit is in good shape, but the dummy needs a little work. Not sure what happened to the roadnames :S

And finally, my favourite, an Athearn Hi-F Milwaukee Road F-7.

Hey Cheez, I've got what I think is a Tyco CN F-7 as well.
Although, mine is only one step up from being garbage, as half the pilot is missing, the headlight is long gone, the coulpers are hopeless and the drive gears are cracked. But it runs, somehow. 


I'm not 100% sure what it is, so I posted it in Identification Station as well.
