From surveying eBay daily and how quickly they are grabbed up at asking or at rather high bids, it is abundantly apparent to me that there is a rather large market for the above captioned out of production locomotives. Conversely, I can see the glut of Bachmann ON 30 steam locomotives that are listed on eBay that are not so popular like the 4-4-0 American and 4-6-0 Baldwin that hardly move at all. Fortunately for me I have a Pocahontas Shay and an unlettered Consolidation but would certainly buy a few more flavors if they were again issued since they are great runners, especially the Consolidation.
