Starting with 'Buy Anything Cool Lately", I believe I hit on something really neat. I found a store with a bunch of tin, Standard gauge and O gauge, mostly old stuff but some new. I run prewar and post war with 031 curves, so I stuck with O gauge. I have always liked the bright colors, but held back because they were so large...But then I discovered prewar Oh Two Seven Lionel tin! Perfect size for me and I love it. I started buying tin recently because I think they will be great around the Christmas tree and I hit bargain prices. Here are a few shots - the O27 sits in front of the much two large red passenger cars. Notice my bonus item, which the wife hates (ah ha!). So much more - wish you were all local to me
