The two "damaged" UP passenger cars purchased on eBay from TRAINZ arrived today and needed only 5 minutes with a screwdriver to adjust their frames and car ends to "repair" what looked like serous damage,
They were probably dropped: landed on their couplers which caused the frames to shift; and, move the plastic car ends.
Feeling very fortunate to pickup the offset dome car and the coach for <$100 delivered. The dome car will be a perfect donor as the third short dome in my EMPIRE BUILDER trainset.
