A lot of pick-ups from eBay or hobby shops over the last week and a half:
From eBay- postwar UP 202- Shell is beat up, lacks a rear coupler, but runs quite well!
My dad had a Santa Fe 215 shell that I was able to put on the above UP- looks nice IMO!
RMT Great Northern Buddy with extra lights and speed control(switch to go to parallel and series on the bottom). On the box, it says that this model should be in “Parallel” when paired with any older models of RMT buddy’s. However, I’ve read elsewhere that that they should be in series- any help/feedback would be greatly appreciated!
Pair of postwar Santa Fe 218 FAs. The powered unit is missing the mAgnetraction/gear box. Thinking i might take the one from the UP 202 and fit it on this guy. Still, runs like a champ!
Picked this ‘dummy’ AEM-7 up at Joe’s Train Station in Doylestown, PA after I went to Nick Smith’s and found out they hadn’t updated their summer hours. After researching the AEM-7 948 non-powered on MTH’s website, I realized someone changed the roof and pantographs(roof from black to gray, pantos from black to prototypical orange) very happy with this get! Just wish it had lights with it.
Picked these up at Nick Smith’s(one of the reasons I went). Corgi 1/50 scale British Paratrooppers. Great height and fit well in my “international zone”
Picked up this Marx B&O F-3 on eBay. Seller said it ‘wasn’t running’ some cleaning, lubrication, and CRC on the e-unit as it going just fine!
