Note - on my browsers, the link to get to the listing is either a very small yellow rectangle to the left of the text, or a blue box with a question mark. (Firefox and Safari, respectively.) Click on that to get to the photos of the equipment.

Even if you have no interest in bidding, it's a great opportunity to look at the models Peter's built over the years. I don't think I ever saw the same model in two of Peter's columns, and looking at these photos shows why...

Later,

K

P.S.  It's worth the time to take pictures of your trains for inventory  and now (Winter) would be a good time.......
