Whenever I accompany SWMBO on the occasional day out Antique & Junque Shop-ing, I'm always on the lookout for trains. After many years of viewing various pieces of junk box trains priced as if they were made of gold & platinum, I found a Marx 6" tin plate C*R*I*P Gondola sans wheels & axles for $3.00. Not exactly a momentous find, but I didn't have one of those in my collection.
Happy Rails!
