 If you've always wanted to purchase a used streetcar or interurban, check out the Ozark Mountain Railcar website. They're selling several streetcars and interurbans that are reportedly from the Ohio Railway Museum/

If you past the following link you'll get the Ozark Mountain Railcar page showing what's for sale.

 I'm currently a little short of the $10k they want for #154.

 Wow, I can get a steel caboose for $5,000.

And that $25K Southern Railway caboose is in a parking lot in Gainesville, VA, a few hundred yards from Norfolk Southern tracks.  I've visited it but never seen the interior.  I presume that OMR is brokering the transaction.

That North Shore car is pretty beat up for 10K.

An "expensive model collector"

I think when the railroads retired cabooses you could buy one for 50 bucks, you had to move it off the property tho.

The electroliner in Pennsylvania  is for sale also.

 Locomotive Turntables

: None available at this time

DARN!!

While 10K is too much for this car , It can't be priced low enough to entice scrap dealers.

I may have seen it when I first found the website in August. OMR is AWESOME!
