A friend of mine that I used to teach with is moving and needs to get rid of all her train stuff. She asked me if I would help her sell it. But I really don't have an idea how much some of it cost and she doesn't remember. Is there a place that you would recommend that I could find prices? I have attached photos of some of the items.

I go to eBay, sign in with an account, search for the item and click 'show completed items'. You can get recent sales several months back. Realize that eBay took a commission on these and there was shipping, so prices may be different in a private sale. I have bought things on this forum for less than they list on eBay.
Just so you know, that is an MTH steel arch bridge.
man I wish this was close to me. me and a few other club members are looking for items to put together a some train sets to give local kids who attend our train shows.

I didn't know. Thanks. (she said she thought it was an Atlas bridge)
Hello. There is a Lionel and MTH train store in Danville PA, it is T & J Trains on the main drag. His phone number is 570-275-3939, give him a call, he might have an email address that you could send some detailed pictures, to see if he would be interested. As far as value, the traditional track is about $1 each, Fastrak is around $2 each, the rest are about 60% of retail if in nice condition. If I were a bit closer (south Schuylkill County) I would take a ride up. Another outlet is Cabin Fever auctions, they have at least 2 public sales per month, and in my experience are honest. LMK if I can be of any help.
for the track contact this place;

all you have to do is box it up, they send you a pre-paid label and pay you for the track.
