Springfield, Ohio train show.
60 miles from my home but worth the drive as, since going to this show since 1979, I've found some of my best buys at this show and only a modest 5 bucks to get in.
It's on the county fair grounds with two large buildings with a 'connecting' building between them.
Being a GN modeler, there's usually not a lot of GN stuff to buy in Ohio but, this was a good day
I'm a sucker for the old silver streak kits and there were 7 of them, all at one table. Four GN cabeese, one GN auto car and an NP reefer; all for 50 bucks.
With modern adhesives (ie, CA) they go together pretty quickly and are comparable to a nice brass caboose (3rd picture). They include trucks, though I'll put in new wheels sets, cast ends and cupola, and the rest is wood, plus a lot of cast parts to be attached. A couple even had some paint bottles, although I'll use my scalecoat paint.
I like looking at some the original prices, a whole 2.98 back then: of course that was about twice as much a 'shake the box' athearn kit!
