You never know what you'll find

Went to the local train show just to 'get out of the house' and socialize, not expecting to find much that would interest me.

My booty:

I use some homemade 'hand helds' for the two yards and logging area and found some manufacturer's professional look 'hand helds' for 20 bucks.

Found a nice old Athearn O gauge GN box car kit that will do well on the lionel track for 10 bucks.

And the 'best for last' find, a very nice Sunset N&W J 4-8-4 for only $250. Never had a coupler on the tender and only test run for the last 34 years when made in 1983, back when it sold for $450. Another 'iconic' steam engine that I wanted.

Basic back head detail. Will add a deck plate. Runs very quiet as it has a can motor.

Front coupler rotates.
