Good evening everyone,

Recently, I won an Ebay auction at a good price....including a Tyco EARLY "Brown Box Era" Union Pacific GP20, similiar to the one pictured below-


However, despite the fact that the motor works well and the shell has a full set of handrails....the lower mini stepladder on the rear of the shell is chipped. :( :(

So, I wanted to inquire if anyone aboard the Tyco forum would be interested in Trading a Tyco GP20 locomotive shell in good cosmetic condition (handrails preferred, but if not, I would still be interested), in any roadname??? I like the Union Pacific, red Burlington, ICG or IC, New York Central, or Reading the best, but again, I wouldn't mind any roadname.

Horns and Bell are preferred, but if not available, I have replacements of my own. :)

What I have to trade- besides the items already available under the Trading Post, I also would be willing to trade an Alco C630 handrail set, Alco C630 "Red Box era" powered trucks, shells for parts, track, or powerpacks.

I have a Penn Central F7/F9 dummy in good shape too, that I'm interested in trading eventually.....

Can you show a pic of the chipped step? A simple transplant might work...

Sure, here's a photo:


I don't think that this break could be rectified with a transplant...although I did personally consider it too...:(

I have a Tyco fantasy road name CHATTANOOGA GP20 body shell

It's missing a motor but the body is excellent.

Well, I am mostly interested in the real road name shells....but if no one else makes me an offer to trade a GP20 shell, then I will PM you by Monday night, as I am interested in the Chattanooga shell.

WHOA. Is that a steam locomotive with the prototypical-broken foot ladder?
