I'm going to be looking for an inexpensive McCoy passenger set for a repaint. Not sure who may have some and in what hall? Thank you.

Chris, I don't believe you would find more in one particular hall. I think you need to go thru all the halls till you find what you are looking for.
Hi Ed. I figured orange hall wouldn't be much of an option so I'll have to search threw the member halls and see if I get lucky.

Try MRS. MCCOY???
Bonnie and Bob Jr. McCoy don't go to York.
Chris, with the exception of an occassional new piece that the McCoys make and sell new on eBay, all McCoy is 20 or 30 years old: not the kind of thing dealers will have much of. Trainz sometimes lists some on their website. But usually in very nice shape.
If you're looking for an inexpensive set to repaint, I'd concentrate on the members halls, not the dealers, and see what you come up with. Compared to other vintage standard gauge, you will find the prices for McCoy quite attractive, especially if you are looking for something with the finish a little rough, or even mismatched cars, to repaint. Good luck!
Do you have a specific plan for the repaint?
