Here's a good (bad) one, four crappy old bachmann locos, a few cars and buildings, and track for a RIDICULOUS price...

I honestly don't thin I'll ever get my hands on one of these. Was $100 too much for it? Maybe I really can't say.
ATSF 630 Boxed with Riv Drive: http://www.ebay.com/itm/351879499551?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
Whoever got this got a steal. I would have bought it for myself but I prioritize Tyco before other trains!
Lionel HO GS-4: http://www.ebay.com/itm/272410128001?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
Here is something I would buy ASAP if it was ~$100. $350 is just a bit too much in my opinion.
TYCO Brown Box Era Store Display: http://www.ebay.com/itm/131978989675?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Kris4301, I included a thread of my Tyco piggybacks here. I ended up buying 10 of every trailer that Tyco had produced. There are a few that had slight variances in the graphics but I didn't attempt to go to that extreme... If you have any interest in the Tyco trailers here's what they produced.  http://tycoforums.com/tyco/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=12945&SearchTerms=tyco,piggyback

Thanks for the info.
Here is a pretty decently priced auction. Just picked up one of these for 40 bucks myself.
Bachmann/Kader GS-4 WP Daylight $57
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bachmann-673-HO-Western-Pacific-482-Daylight-4-8-4-Northern-Locomotive-/222294484311?hash=item33c1c8a557:g:EkQAAOSwA3dYEOUU
If you want one I'd say get this one fast. It ain't gonna sit long.

Wow, 600 semolians for those Transformer and trucking sets. I cringe if I cough up more than $20 at a whack.
Nice shirt, BTW.

Even rarer than the Transformers train is the AHM GO-Bots train...

And some crazy ones...
Cox Container train set...
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Cox-CP-Rail-train-set-from-1980s-Original-Box-/252542042847?hash=item3accadc2df:g:VSoAAOSwNRdX24fR
And what is apparently a pair of brass IHC locos.....

I love the $69.95 price tag

And my personal favourite... the Model Power set here.

Those Canadian exclusives seem to carry a premium. I like those Cox sets. Too bad eBay is always a huge hit or miss when it comes to prices.

Can somebody explain to me what this is?
Is this original tooling/cast to make the metal sharknose? I'd buy it but it's pretty expensive.

Looks to me to be a factory piece that was never finished for some reason, either a defect or a stop in production for some other reason. Looks pretty authentic.

Not sure what it is Sean but it's pretty cool. I'm sure someone here will identify it...
