This is just interesting. One of the ubiquitous "Plymouth MDT" switchers, except it has European buffers, couplers, and is running around in SNCF livery!

Rather nifty piece, but no one has bid on it with 5 hours to go.
As Frank Fritz would say, "I like it, but I don't like it at $250."

Judging where my Canadian Sharknose is with 2 days left on the auction I'm beginning to think more and more people at taking Tyco collecting seriously. That could be good or bad, depending on whether you are buying or selling!
Perhaps if this keeps up we'll see someone start to produce replacement parts for the powertorque!
