I won these 2 up gondolas off Evil bay for .99 cents a pc -- a very good deal considering they arrived in mint / un played with condition which was not stated in description. With shipping the total was around $5.00 not bad -- it has been months since i purchased any trains off ebay but i have plans for these

...would those be kitbash plans?

Nice score. Anytime you can get something for $2.50 mint, that's a good deal. Even if it's just parts.

G-i-C I didn't think i would win these as this is the cheapest Tyco items i have ever bid and won. No kit-bashing of these though

Another thing you can't see in picture is paint color does vary as does mold detail -- look under LO at square block- top car is slightly longer block and bottom car is bigger square. The square i am talking about is located next to the 1st ridge
