Strasburg is a show for everyone.

There were a lot of tables filled with $10 & $20 clean "filler" freight cars with steel wheels and Kadees for those just wanting to build long trains.   Even new in the box Atlas and MTH cars were available for $25 - $35.

If anyone is just getting started in 0 scale 2 rail the Strasburg show usually has a bunch of entry level family affordable stock available.

This show was particularly representative of a large number of very affordable entry level 2-rail cars and engines - cars were being sold at prices you'd have a hard time buying just the trucks and couplers!

For the complete picture let me say there were scores of quality high end brass cars well represented by Keystone, RYM, early SS brass,  PCS, OMI & others  all priced to sell.

Something for everyone (or close to it!)

Also had to be well over a hundred very reasonable priced steam engines.  All good clean decent looking  pieces.  Dealers were working the numbers to close many deals.

A Weaver RS3 for $60 on one table..........

Good meet and I was able to sell off a lot of smaller items and a couple of cars out of my inventory.

Indianapolis meet is next month.............
