College collectibles
Posted by Anonymous on Friday, December 7, 2001 9:42 AM
Can anybody help me? A couple of years ago at a train show in Tulsa, OK an exhibitor was there with trains depicting probably every university one could think of. I was totally unprepared to make a purchase as I was with my preteen son and was just browsing and showing him all the neat stuff we could do with an extra room at our house. I have been unable to locate any supplier or dealer in our area that carries anything like this. Does anybody here know where I can get information on these train sets and rolling stock?

Do you remember the scale? There is a compasny making HO scale boxcars called "Show Me Lines" that makes all sorts of cars for the Armed Forces, States, Pro Sports Teams, etc. They may make colleges as well. Try a search engine to find them. The NMRA manufacturer list has been hacked and is down.
