Found some cheap trucks

[Dr.Fu-Manchu]

The Doctor is In!!! I came across two kiddie action play sets that have O scale or close to it. One was a firefighter/police set made by Boley, and a construction set made by toys"R"us under the name "Fast Lane" . The people are G or Standard Gauge, so I am getting rid of them(tca swap meet) The fire set has a Ladder truck with an extending ladder with a bucket for a fighter. A "First Alarm" command truck with a flip up antenna. also a helecopter. A paramedic truck has a motor and a wired control(am going to remove) And some signs and what not which as I said is better suited for larger scales. The Construction set has a large R/C building crane which can go 360 degrees in both directions and the hook can be raised & lowered. It also comes with a dump truck, cement mixer, back hoe & a front or skip loader. All units can be posed, the dump truck bed can be up or down, the loaders can be loading or unloading, any way you want them. As with the fire/police set, the figures & signs are oversized but will look good with G or Standard. I found them at Albertson's stores here in Alameda, Ca. They were under $20.00. I also found army sets at Walgreen's Drug stores that had trucks that were close in size. I bought two sets when I thought my son was going to build an army base on a section of my layout, he did not so I now have two army units in my basement. I may use them yet. The fire trucks and construction tractors & trucks can be used as is or fixed up, some of the construction decals should be removed I think. But for the price, you can not go wrong! And the R/C crane can be used by kids that visit your pike ! It has flashing lights and sounds !! The things you find at the food & drug stores!!!
Till My Next Missive I Remain The Humble Yet Strangly Evil Doctor !!![}:)]
