Heavy presence of 3 railers at the Strasburg show. They caught the scent of unique one of a kind structures, scenery items at great prices, little people and automobiles, and convertible rolling stock. Plus Bob Lavezzi has a lot of Weaver repair parts from the company shut down.
I sold off approx. 150 freight cars over the last three shows for $8 - $10 - $12 each and about half of them were purchased by 3 railers for wheel swaps.
If anyone is thinking about getting into o scale trains and would happen to be concerned about the cost, then just come to a 2 rail 0 scale swap meet like at the Strasburg firehouse.
There are bargains galore! You may even come over to the 2 rail dark side.
$5 entrance, free parking, gigantic Pennsylvania State RR museum, live steam Strasburg RR, TCA headquarters, etc, etc.
Make a week end out of it.
