River Rasin S scale brass

GE 44 Tonner, unpainted or painted. looking to turn one into this.

Back to the original post: sounds like quite a "stash". I would think there must be an auction site or two where those type of high end items are shown; as either current or past sales. I'm sure you can find something online.

Mark in Oregon

Ebay active listings and sales history

River Raisin tends to hold its value, so if nothing else I would start at the original purchase price.

The RR website has all their models listed in their photo gallery with original prices listed.  I can't find the N&W A or the RS-11 listed, sure they're not Overland?

Good point Rusty.  Those two are OMI, not RRM.

Also, you can also look up past sales on brasstrains.com

The GE-44 tonner is primed in a light gray.  Yes the N&W Class A and RS-11 are Overland.

I also found 4 Drake tank cars factory painted all in original boxes.

Thanks for the ideas.

I saw two different price's on the 44 tonner, River Raisin website had one for $200 and Des Plaines Hobby website had one for $250. Both sold before I could get the money, I just found out today that all 16 boxes of my HO, O 2&3 rail I sent to the train auction house back on 12/11/20 will not get touched until sometime next month. I would like it @VGN64, just how long would you want to wait.

I am aware of someone who has two painted Drake tank cars for sale for $325 ea.   He is very experienced in selling high end S scale equipment, so this should provide an indicator on these.

I found this on the River Rasin site:

GE 44 ton Diesel
180 models, December 1993
Retail Price: $ 329
