Here we have a nice custom car, depicting the guy we love to hate the most these days, Osama Bin Ladin ( where the heck is he, anyway? ). Since my train club is full of military guys, I thought this would be great to run in a consist. Too bad I don't have a GI Joe Tyco set to run it in.  Maybe I could hook this up to my HO Lionel exploding boxcar? Or is that too tasteless?  Anyway, whoever did it did a nice job, I like it.

I finally finished an Ambroid B&M snow plow kit that I bought partially assembled on eBay. Well, it's not decaled, but I haven't found a set of B&M decals that includes the plow.

Hi All,
Great stuff! My car of the week is a Varney 4 wheel Southern Pacific gondola. Fancy that yellow coupler huh. I'm not sure how old it is, but it looks like it has been around a while.
Hope you enjoy.
Mike

Holiday car...from me...to me Picked up at the last Greenburg show. Got a few bucks knocked off for free since I had to wait because the booth seller left to goto the bathroom haha.
Been wanting one of these for awhile. Just for the various things you can do with it. This one was particularly attractive because its basically a blank canvas with no paint or markings. Sometime in 2011 this thing is going to have a bad run in with my paint brushes.

Hi All,
I guess it is Christmas week and I should have posted a Christmas themed car. So I will add an extra car this week. This was given to me by a friend of the family.
Hope you enjoy
Merry Christmas!
Mike

This is not where you list sale items. also the place you have listed in is a auction and not for sale. A sale item has a fixed price.

Oh my! $99.99 for a tyco caboose???? I'll have to go down to the hobby shop and snatch up all the $2 ones if this sells for that much. I could make me a hefty profit.
