Today I walked through a show, and picked up a beat up Marx #333, with the die cast
tender, for a good price, to use as my chassis for an inspection engine. (since I don't
like any of the examples from the major makers...oh, right, there are none). I had
been looking for a broken plastic shell 1829 to rob, so was surprised to find a 333. I also saw there the K-Line version of the 333, new in a really beat up box, for $100. I
passed, but was that a good price? I have heard about this engine for some time but
first time I have seen one.
