The All Aboard Panels are what I used to set up at an annual train show here in town.  The set set up in about 15 minutes and many folks had never heard or seen the system untill they saw my set up.  

I've thought about taking an extra set of panels and turn them into a Winter Wonderland replica.

I need to learn how to put multiple pics in the same poat!

Nice photos everyone.

Jim, I have always liked the All Aboard sets that Flyer produced.  I have a bunch of the panels and one of these days I will set up a layout.  I think they would be great fun at a show.

Jim.....Good photos.  Is that a train show where you exhibited?

For years and years I have read many posts where someone found a "real deal" on a locomotive, rolling stock, transformer, etc. and of course I would read the post and wonder why I could never find a "real deal".  Finally I found my "real deal" after 20 years of looking in junk bins, dusty shelves, antique stores, and garage sales.  

 I bought these cars for $7.50 ea. plus Ohio sales tax.  They were dusty, but no noticeable wear.  Only one tank car piece was missing.  (RT, I went back and bought more.) The boxes were not included.  The Hood's Milk car still had the wrapping on the couplers and the fragile door closures were still intact. 

This J.M. Huber tank car has a missing lid on the top of the car.  That seems to be the only blemish.

 

So now I've found my "real deal". Yeah
