I've enjoyed it. As old as it it, it runs really good and really reliably. But, it remains too fast for my taste. I like things that go slow. The tractor trailers aren't too, too fast, but I've got my eye on this Trolley Bus Set that I'd like more. All the stuff here works and is well tested. It is lubed and ready to roll, unless otherwise mentioned.
On this auto carrier, I lightly glued the cars down to keep them from rattling loose and flying away. The unit runs fine mid thru fast speeds. $35?
I like it, I love it, but it is just too fast. Tracks well. Solid runner. $50?
Solid runner. Good mid range speed. $30?
Got the good working controller, the track, the cord. Got a small pile of switching track and other straights. Some sections, as you will see, have been repainted to make them closer to gray, and made it worse, but works good. $20 for all the track and controller. I'm keeping the signs, which are kind of bent anyways.
Model A Ford, unusual piece. Tires are good, motors good, tested, but the pick ups require repair, the solder is still there, probably needs just a little glue to hold it all together. $35?
Bundlemania Deal: $160?
UPDATE:
I thought I had more US 1 track, but this is it: a couple of straights and some unloading sections. Still, bundle me at $160?

Well I got 50 on it, but make me an offer. The chassis is off a different unit, this piece runs well. Tracks well. I've taken out the US 1 area and am going to install a vintage trolley bus. I love this VW piece, but it is just too dang fast. I put a bundle price of $160 on the whole shebang- all of it works good- but I'd do $150 to move it to a good home.

More stuffs to the pile, plus price drop. $140 takes it all, plus insured shipping.

Big pile of interconnecting US 1 stuff still available. $140 for all, feels like I am waxing my own back, the VW van alone gets high dollar. Everything show is what you get. Everything works, and works well as Tyco made a solid product. The rare Model A needs a tweak on the pick up brushes, but is otherwise fine. Next stop eBay in a few days were I might double my money or lose my cheap K Mart shirt.
