I hope everyone who is at York is having a good weekend. The weather looks like it will be perfect on thurs and friday.
We are in New Jersey, takin care of things and friends who need a little help. No time for York....Barely enough time to get done here what needs to be done, before we have to head back to Calif in a week, York, for a dealer, takes at least 6 days of work, and at least 1000. out of pocket costs, and paperwork with the state of PA for sales tax reporting. So wuda been nice, but no time.
We will be working on getting out invoices for MTH Strasburg, Rutland,NWP, and other 40' double sheathed box cars starting tomorrow night. There are some other invoices in the que too.
Im also planning to start listing on the website MTH Premier 70' passenger car sets. We ave about 40 of the 4 and 5 car sets, anut the same number of 2 car sets, and a dozen ir so single cars. Also will start listing Lionel "Standard O" cars. These will be relatively inexpensive. They are O scale size, but short on detailing, and not something that will be part of our regular stock.
Things that we ave here in New Jersey, if anyone is interested.... We could ship...but since we are short on time, would much prefer pickup. I doubt anyone would be interested, but FWIW...
1. about 250 Atlas industrial rail cars...These are O27 size cars (Lionel traditional size), with diecast sprung truck/couplers. They are all new in unopened cases. $10. per car. If anyone wants to pick up on thurs night and take to york on friday, we can do that.
2. About 100 Lionel traditional size cars look to be mostly from the 1970's and 80's. Mostly box cars, and a few other things, Nothing fancy or special that i know of. Asking $15. a car
3. several boxes of Railroad public timetables from the 1950's and 60's, (seems to be an even amount from RR's across the country. plus some 1970's ETT's, and Conrail ZTS books. Price negotiable., but not asking a lot. Theres also some stock certificates (nothing rare the i know of) and other things.
4. About a dozen boxes of MTH, Weaver, Lionel, K-line catalogs. 1980's thru 2000's. Free if anyone wants. Otherwise will probably be trashed.
5. OGR mags, including some old ones, Railpace magazines back to late 80;s or so. some MR mags back to the 50's or 40's and some old Trains mags. Free if anyone wants.
6. 5 or 6 boxes of old LIFE and similar mags from 1930's thru 1950's, generally. These are mostly good for taking out te ads for sale and / or framing. O'd like to get 5 bucks a mag, but negotiable. I want someone to take all of it tho...not looking for someone who wants to dig thru and buy 1 or 2 mags.
Anyone who might be interested in anything, pls email me at pdt212@gmail.com
Thanks,
beth
