Joe Lyons posted:After years of hunting I FINALLY acquired the USTTC Green Boxcab for the Stephen Girard set.
It has been a slow process to put this set together. I first found the Coral Isle #522 observation car in an auction several years ago. The other two cars were auctioned off separately and I only won this one.
In April 2016 a friend I met through this forum had a friend who had the remaining 2 cars I needed for sale and he was able to set up the deal for me to acquire the #520 Liberty Bell and #521 Stephen Girard.
The only catch in acquiring the engine was that I had to buy it as a set with the 3 cars so now I have an extra 3 car set.
And I just found out that there is a fourth car, the # 519 Dining Car.
The hunt continues!
Congrats Joe, very cool.
