Yes... you should be! LOL
That is TOTALLY STEALING. The station alone should be $200!
Yup - stolen. Where'd you find that deal, Steve?

CALL THE COPS!
i've only seen one in person once... that thing is huge and pretty impressive when lit up in a night scene. congrats!
Hey, no fair!!!
and now Mr Eastman I would like my station back.....
All that comes to mind is Daffy Duck saying "your......your.....despicable!" Great find!
Great find, Steve! I seem to remember you getting an equally good deal on a Williams 25th Anniversary set. How do you sleep at night??!!??

Gary, it was a pain, but I had to take it apart and work over the lighting. All are now working.

An e-mail went out to the TTOS SP members of some stuff for sale. The stuff is mostly the larger items he did not want to deal with shipping on. I got the platform and some signals, Jeff got some smaller items and Bill got a MTH 300 Hellsgate for $150.00.
Here are some goodies left yet. These are all homemade. They are big. The power station mimics the original in size. The freight and passenger platforms are "about" three feet long. The roundhouse is really nice.

Steve,
What scale is the round house O or Standard? If it is Standard I would be very interested, if it is O my wallet would be very happy.

Tim, your wallet is safe. The round house is O. The whole layout these came from was O, but the structures are big.

I like the inserts to make the 115 station fit the footprint of a 116 station.
Great steal...I mean find, Steve!
Finally all the lights work. Mostly bad ground issues from age. Soldered all the joints. Also found this Proto Layout unit inside the station. Need to get more info on it.

power + a speaker? give it a shot... my guess is "station" sounds.

Gary, it does work and does what you would think. Just wondering if there are sound selections inside like steam, diesel etc.
Lock him up!

The other items look like the work of a fellow from Glen Rock PA who passed a few years ago. I always enjoyed chatting with him at York.
We will now have to lock you up for this. And then we will all go over to your house and play trains. And order pizza delivered.

I laminated a get out of jail card and keep it in my wallet just in case I ever get in trouble with the law��

Any time you head down south, let me know.

that looks like an MTH 50-505 proto sound, worth about what you paid for the whole station.

Is there a label with the sound set on it somewhere? might have to use a mirror to see it in there. Nice catch!
It couldn't have happened to a more deserving...
.... THEIF!
Hey!. Help! Po-lice..po-leaze!.....This guy is a THEIF! ..put it back....HELP!
Sirens, that what it plays...sirens.
I'd ask about a timer but your timing is obviously spot on.
Yep and im going to have to confiscate all your trains till i can find rightfull owners in 20-30 yrs. In amazed at all the stuff you find steve
If your conscience really bothers you a good salve for the pain would be to mail all that stuff to me.
I can't find much of anything in north central Arizona.

Just another exciting part of the hobby.

Still around Steve, Moved to Prescott Valley AZ about three years ago, had some major health issues and lost my wife to double pneumonia, but I'm back on my feet and trying to figure out how to fill a 28' x 36' room in the north half of my workshop.
Looking for three or four more 999 engines and tenders for my Canadian engine, maybe a 2-6-2 or 4-6-4 and a 0-4-0 "snake" streamliner or two, all with double reduction motors for convenience. Gathering up freight cars no end and would like at least a four car streamline passenger rig.
I'm 75 years old going on 16 and figure I have a few more years to get something going. One of these days I'll figure out how to take and send pictures.
