Reply to "Buy/Make Anything Cool Lately (Tinplate Version)"

I recently added these to my collection.

A very early Ives #190 standard gauge tank car. These were formerly 1 gauge cars and when Ives entered the standard gauge field in 1921 they used the same tank car. It is notable for the suspended air tank, ratchet on the brake wheel (wheel missing), long ladders, and narrow 1 gauge size couplers. The couplers on this example were changed to the wider type. In 1923 Ives changed the design to a tank on full frame style.

Next is a Bing 1 gauge beer car circa 20's-30's. 

French Hornby  O gauge Orient Express passenger cars. Only 2 cars are pictured, but I actually acquired 4. I have been trying to find these cars for some time to go behind my NORD 4-4-2. Now I need to find replacement wheel sets for the cars as zinc pest has attacked the original wheels.
