I went to an estate sale and actually found some train items and the best part is they are even standard gauge. I got a set of Lyle Cain reproduction #205 cargo containers in like new condition for $36.00, A McCoy 1976 TCA flat car for $17.00 and the water and ticket wagons for $1.00 each. As you've probably guessed the wheels on the water cart and ticket cart are falling apart so I'm looking at G scale Grandt line wheels on Ebay. If anyone has any suggestions on wheels please let me know. So the containers and the carts seems to be a good buy, the flat car not so much but it was the only standard gauge car I have ever seen at an estate sale and the wife and I had fun so it was worth it.
