I thought this LCCA NS box car, Support Our Troops, would always be cool car to have.  However, I never thought I would owe one because of difficulty of finding it.  I have seen many of these overpriced on the bay, so I never seriously pursed to find one.  However, when I saw this one up for auction, the bidding started off at reasonable price.   On the last day of auction, there was only 1 bid on it, so I put up a good maximum bid on it, but I was still thinking someone will surely out bid me on this one.  I was surprised when no further bids were placed and I won the auction for little less than the original price when it came out a few years ago!   The car was listed as used, but when I took it out the box, it appeared to have no run time!

This Southern Pelican LCCA box car I have been searching for for several months to match my other NS Southern Heritage cars that I have in my collection.  Again, I got this one at a reasonable price, new in the box, and I was the only bidder on it!

It is always nice to find something you want and not to have to pay arm and leg for it!

I don't know if this counts, new to this group and O gauge trains, unless you count the one I got for Christmas in 1948.  Still trying to build my first layout, so much I don't know, but I have bought some engines and cars in preparation.  I love large steamers I remember as a kid and I was able to find a new Lionel 9000 class UP engine, I couldn't believe how beautiful it is, the twelve drivers are something to behold.  I thought my SF Texan was big.  I see from other posts I should have a photo.

Four months ago I bought a 3rd Rail PRR P70 from a forum member for $75 to be part of a scale sized commuter train I'm putting together.  Thought it was like a GGD one; plastic.  When I opened the box and saw it was brass, I was a little surprised.  A great looking car, but I'm not sure it is better than GGD's.  Because it is a little different than GGD's plastic P70s, I plan to run this as a coach with my GGD 1948 streamliner set.

I bought one of these on the recommendation of Jeff Kane who thought I'd like the challenge of getting one of these Postwar 3360s back in running condition. "Challenge" was an understatement. The complexity of the engineering that went into these little bad boys is amazing. It runs perfectly now and was a blast to work on. It does, however, sound like a coffee grinder in action. Goes with the territory on these.

another yellow bonnet.

MTH ps 2.0 with all 6 passenger cars. I already had 3 add on cars and a second engine. so A-A and 9 passenger cars. I hope to be done buying for awhile. I also should get my challenger back tomorrow per the tracking number out of space on the layout to park trains. sounds like I need more shelves.
