@Capetrainman posted:Neophyte...nice vehicles...based on the tin container behind the Studebaker, I take it its brand is "Solido?" Is it a special addition...I've never seen one come in a tin box like yours??
Not sure. It’s their “Elegance” line. It also came with pinstripes that I still have to apply. I like it!
Just have the standard Greyhound bus .....

Paul, great photo of main street, surprised the law enforcement is no where to be found! Lol
Both you and Richie have nice Grayhound bus photos, I looked for one and everyone I found for sale was an arm and a led!
Maybe if I find some I will put my Grayhound station on the layout.
Mike - if you're interested, try Charles Ro, one of our Forum Sponsors (and my LHS) - that's where I got mine a few years ago. They're showing a couple Greyhound bus models in stock at reasonable prices for a bus - MTH 30-50115 and 30-50118. No photos, but you can cross reference the numbers on MTH's website to see pics. Not 100% sure, but I believe the only difference is the name of the "city" (like Amarillo) on the front of the bus.

Thanks Richie, I will give it a look.
My 1936 Greyhound Bus is a little older. I always liked the aero styling of the Flexible Clippers. This is a Corgi die cast.

Thanks Paul! I took a look and right down what would be nice for the layout. Going to have to put the buses on hold for a little while.
The "Boss' arrives at the North Main Street Station just in time for 7:10 pm to Chicago for a meeting the next morning...let's just say the main agenda for the meeting is a discussion on territorial issues...

Great “short story” and terrific realistic figures, Paul. Now who’s got the violin?

TomlinsoRunRR...there's a violinists standing over on the station platform waiting to greet the "Boss..." A young inexperienced driver is behind the wheel of the '41 Lincoln...the boss wanted the new maroon red color after a some hesitancy to buy another black one...
I always wanted one of those Flxible busses.

May I ask who makes the smoking figure? It is surprisingly hard to find suitable figures straight out of noir movies.

GwrChurch...it's been a while since I purchased the figure from a vendor at the Springfield, MA show, but I believe the figure is an "Omen" brand from England. I found the site on line not too long ago. I don't know if the "smoking" body guard is still available...
😉 The sisters, bring Mom, to meet Walter Warner, for the final closing of the sale, and hopefully her approval'. The sisters will share the the 59 Impala convertible...
