I stumbled upon this thread and am so glad that I can stumble! Don't typically visit this forum even though I sold my entire MTH Railking collection to try to 'get into' tin plate. I blame it all on Chris Lonero's pictures that he often posts on the photo fun thread!!!!
So I bought 2 PS3 steamers in O-gauge: the baby blue comet set and the "christmas" set. I was planning on getting "stuff" until I started shopping and saw the prices! YIKES.
So I really loved looking at the images in this thread. I'm going to have to make viewing this thread a regular activity here. I enjoyed seeing all of the old "real" tin-plate stuff.
thanks for having this thread - walt
