I was finally able to add one of the smaller Lobaugh locos to my layout/collection at the Muncie, Indiana show yesterday.  A fine older gentleman and his wife were selling a collection of 2 rail(most I have ever seen at this show).  Prices were awsome across the board on all the bits and bobs, $10 freight cars, $25 for unbuilt freight car kits ect.   I gave $150 for the SP 0-6-0 with the Vanderbilt tender, nicely painted, directional lights.   He also had a small brass 2-8-0, unknown importer but marked Samhongsa on the bottom for $150 that was nicely painted.  I also got some freight car trucks, a lighted Tomar ground throw w/lantern, a beater SP caboose built from a wood kit and some Kaydees out of the boxes of stuff.  It was a lifetime collection from a layout they took down.  The 0-6-0 has the field wound motor in it, but the rectifier was bad(typical issue),  So right now its wired to just go forward till I get a new rectifier for it.  Runs great making those great open frame motor smells.  Now I am hunting one of the Lobaugh SP cabooses and some of the SP reefer cars so I can built an ice dock to switch them into for reicing.  AD.    Lobaugh
