Sup tin folks?! 

Apologies in advance to the Marx gods for the kludge you're about to see but I've found pretty much everything that can run with the 21 ATSF E7 Marx locomotives that interested me, with the exception of the Shell tank car. 

And when I couldn't find it for a reasonable price, or as part of a lot, I made it, like the Shell and Cities Service tankers. Taking wheel sets off of rolling stock that were duplicates and putting them on the 3/16" cars for the desired result. It's just a shorty tank car. I've also yet to recieve the other version of the 1950 GAEX boxcar. 

I also found the plastic set for those 21's, plus a little Pennsy gondola. I think I prefer the tin better and doubt the 21 will pull them all at one time. Maybe the WBB chassis upgrade is in store soon? 

 

I'm also waiting for something I've been looking for for a VERY long time, since before my foray into O gauge stuff. To be conTINued... 

I think there is a Marx high wheel shell tanker on the bay right now.
