Not shown are the Tyco Horse Corral set (Laramie) and Bachmann Gravy Train box cars (five) and a NIB Tyco glow in the dark set.
I have been on a mad Tyco Bender lately. Every time Tin Plate Henry comes in with
more Tyco stuff I feel compelled to buy it, thinking, "the time to buy it is when you
see it." I am starting to feel a bit overwhelmed. Do I keep this stuff or do I toss it
out on ebay and see if anyone wants it? Oh, I forgot to mention the AHM (it's not
even Tyco) three car Hyvee set because it had the Maxwell House Hopper in it.

Thus my dilemma. I cannot decide. BUT Tinplate Henry has some
more stuff I forced myself NOT to buy, I'll put it on the TF form, and
you can email him at Henry14a@yahoo.com. I totally vouch for
this guy. He is a regular ebay trader and an antique dealer.
Has a nice flat, NIB, with Bekins Moving pigs. Also a NIB
Union Pacific flat with pigs. His prices are more than fair, he
never gouges.

Yeah, if I sell this stuff off I'll be kicking myself
for' too long. If anyone wants some of this
action, email Henry14@yahoo.com. Also
found a NIB Tyco flat with the Sea-Land
containers this afternoon.

It's hard to pass up that piggyback stuff but as you know, I have met my limit... Very Nice bunch of items, Jeff.

I ended up selling the Shuttle Jack on Evilbay for $80,
a bit less than the $120 I was hoping for. I liked the
piece, but it really doesn't meld with the Tyco I've
been accumulating. So it went to Florida to start
life as a Wall Queen, even though she runs very
well. I figure if I just hung on to it, it would get
damaged from excessive storage.
The piggy backs I ended up keeping, and
I'm glad I did. It is unlikely I will ever see
them again, and the price was good. They
look awesome snaking around curves.
I can't seem to give the Hyvee promotional set
away on Fleabay, and I keep dropping the asking
price (NO Micro, you may not have it for free).
Guess I'll just have to use it now and then until
some sucker shows up as impulsive as I was.

Well, Chops ... It's hard to turn loose of some of this stuff ! I have realize that I have too much stuff, some I know I just can't use as I have no where that satisfies the Tyco Crossover bridge. I have two Atlas Girder Truss bridges I wanted to use but have no water nor anywhere to put water that works well, or would look good. I have train cars that I know I have no room for. My nephew has spoken of the Tyco Old Spice box car since Christmas. I'm thinking of sending it down to him... OR who knows? I might just keep all of it and shove it in a box under the layout table!!
