Yes, Time Warp... That's a good one! He has had that listed forever with no sale of course. Hard to believe, Huh? 
Alex & Kris, I'm surprised MicroBen has gotten excited over those A-Team sets!

Rare Blue Spirit of 76 Boxcar in box. Box is pretty beat up but for $37 you really can't beat it. The last one I saw went for $67 without the box. I would have picked this one up myself but I'm holding out for something a little cooler.....
http://www.ebay.com/itm/TYCO-PAUL-REVERE-BOXCAR/222339056568?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D38530%26meid%3D918b2dcf508a46cab7ff96ae95e5d3de%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D282282201257
Anyways I know someone said they were looking for one so here is your chance. I'd act fast as these are always in high demand.

Have no idea why. So I bid $1 on it just so I could track it- for my amusement. I am not a Coke collector, just merely curious. Well, darned if my stupid $1 was the winning bid- and I had no intention for buying this. I might keep it, or I might try to see if I can flip it for a small profit. True story. I'll post it to SOTW when it turns up. And the shipping was terribly overpriced.

Some did a nice a job on that school house, eh? But like anything of that nature, including hot rods and such, you'll never get your money back out of it. Yep, and I'm the ding-dong that won it at $50. It's growing on me, though. Suppose I should just embrace to the slope.

Ebay auctions can be entertaining to say the least. I hope Jeff doesn't put that cat on Ebay! I have a larger scale train set that my Dad bought for me at Christmas in 1969. He dated the bottom of the engine with his unmistakable writing...

On my quest to locate all the roadnames offered on the AHM 3-bay covered hopper, I am short only 4: Naugatuck Plastics, EJ&E, B&O, and UP. Naturally I turn to ebay. I shouldn't have wasted my time looking if I knew all I was going to find was this! http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-AHM-5263-HO-Scale-Elgin-Joliet-Eastern-Covered-Hopper-C-7-MS-/322372836477?hash=item4b0eeb1c7d:g:dhsAAOSwux5YOux3 It's seriously a $10 car on a good day
