Got this at a train show today.  $40 car & got it "new" for $20!! 

But that's not the best part - when I got it home & opened the

Box, it had a $13 lighting kit already installed!!  Sometimes you

Just get lucky!!Big Smile [:D]

What train show was dat?

Wayne PAL , It's mostly Lionel, about 20% HO.  The next one there is August 17, from 9am to 2pm, $5 admission - kids under 10 free - decent food, although I did the show in just over an hour taking my time. Smile [:)]

LOL. I think if it were'nt for the formaldahyde problems associated with FEMA trailers, Jeffery may jump at the chance to get one. Like he said, his trailer is 58 years old. Although, I'm not sure what size FEMA trailers are?

Somewhere around the size of a 25-30' camper trailer. NOT very big. Jeff would have to switch to Z scale.
