Hey - it was one of the military sets - must have been attacked! Hope the troops got out OK.

Those are not cars any longer. They are gondola loads.

YIKES! That is bad! I does actually look like the wheels and other parts could be slavaged, though. I can make out a satellite launcher, an exploding boxcar, a missile launcher and a Marx flat car.

3 BIDS when I looked.

I can't believe somebody is willing to pay the shipping, let alone bid on this trash.

4 more bids were placed since then. Final selling price: $11.50. Shipping is $12. Still, as crazy as it may be, getting a whole box full of burnt trains for $11.50 is a much better deal than paying the same price for a single melted EP-5.
