Buy anything cool lately?

Never mind, I figured out what it means!

The car is very nice though, I need to go to my local hobby shop for some scenery anyway, so I'll check if he has any of those cars, or any similar.

Larry, did you find that on FEEbay? there was one that went for $450 the other day i wanted to buy

I finally bought my first set of Lionel aluminum passenger cars for my collection, and one from the year I was born (1993): The California Zephyr. It will be a week until they arrive at my front door, but I don't regret buying it a bit. Always a favorite, glamorous set of mine, and at a steal price of $375!

A 5-car K-Line 15" aluminum Lackawanna Phoebe Snow passenger set. The 15" cars look good on my O54, O63 and O72 curves. I'm also getting an ABA F-3 set to pull them. I also got a 1956 Desoto 1/43 die-cast. I've been wanting a Desoto for a long time!

I just got my first Legacy engine! It's a Seabord C-420 #129. Nothing is broken, and everything but the instructions are included. I paid $250 for it. I love it!!!

Just received my new PWC Wabash F-3 from Nassau Hobbies they are perfect. They pull my postwar rolling stock with no problem.

Nice looking F3.  Always liked the Wabash colors.

bought 2x 2095035 5 car spline sets and this k-line hopper

 

 

 

Ive been looking for K-line hoppers like that forever. Im jealous

yea I thought I was going to get 3 more on dash but the guy has a bid that is crazy it's at $318 now. I paid $71 so 3x$71 is $210 way less than current price. thought it would be cool to have 4 but not at that price .

 

New to me, from a fellow OGR member, a Marx Mercury Wind Up set.

Dang, how did I miss those. I check DASH all the time

I bought one of these yesterday and donated it to the Virginia Museum of Transportation.

$50? Did they think it was a plastic car?

Four months ago I bought a 3rd Rail PRR P70 from a forum member for $75 to be part of a scale sized commuter train I'm putting together.  Thought it was like a GGD one; plastic.  When I opened the box and saw it was brass, I was a little surprised.  A great looking car, but I'm not sure it is better than GGD's.  Because it is a little different than GGD's plastic P70s, I plan to run this as a coach with my GGD 1948 streamliner set.

 

 

I bought one of these on the recommendation of Jeff Kane who thought I'd like the challenge of getting one of these Postwar 3360s back in running condition. "Challenge" was an understatement. The complexity of the engineering that went into these little bad boys is amazing. It runs perfectly now and was a blast to work on. It does, however, sound like a coffee grinder in action. Goes with the territory on these.

Really like that, you did a terrific job.  I would build an old work train to show off that piece of equipment.

Oregon,

Thank you!  And I'm thinking of doing exactly that.

another yellow bonnet.

MTH ps 2.0 with all 6 passenger cars. I already had 3 add on cars and a second engine. so A-A and 9 passenger cars. I hope to be done buying for awhile. I also should get my challenger back tomorrow per the tracking number out of space on the layout to park trains. sounds like I need more shelves.

 

A fully assembled and painted but unlettered 0-6-0 in TT for my multi scale collection. Now, all I need is a Lionel OO gauge steamer. Then I will have all of the major and two minor (orphan) scales - all in NYC.
