As you can see I got the pics working. Took the Vivatar back and got an unkown brand, at least to me. New one is an ONN. Its cool. Has lights, more ports, and best of all it works, and was 5 bucks cheaper.
The first reader was a C port reader and this one is an A reader. At least for me it works much better.

There is more stuff in the box. And I hope to get pics soon. LOL, there is still a train to get pics of.

Defender, we will work out something. I was keeping everything from the box. You might need the track more than me.
Give me a few days and I will contact you with private message.

The USB-A port proved easier to use but the USB-C should have worked.
The double street lights are Marx #429. The bridge, assuming it is 24" long, is a Marx #1350.

mopac · 2022-09-22T12:55:56-0400

Tom, I just could not get the first one to work. This one plugs in much more secure to the ports.
The first one should have worked.

Thanks for the info. I figured they were Marx.

I like the lights I have the book worth the money.

mopac · 2022-10-20T07:30:09-0400

I still need to get some pics. Will try to take and post later today. Winter has come to Missouri already.
34 out there right now. Stupid.

Sorry, I forgot. Need to show the engine and a few passenger cars. Not going to show the track, we all know what track looks like. And I think that is it. Engine needs a little work. Cross bar under cab is missing. Seems to be a common problem with K5s. Prongs are comming out of plug on engine. Never seen that before. I don't know if I can fix it or have to get another plug. Paint is nice. Not much wear and tear on it. I am just so far behind on repairs. Need to get all engines running good and get rid of some. I think sometimes i just like to buy MORE. I have 6 really nice Northerns. I
have 2 332AC, 2 K335, and 3 336. Don't need 2 of each. There are people out there that don't have any Northern.
I could use the money.

I'll be getting a new to me 336 next week or so. I made a barter deal with a friend I've been doing repairs for over the past year or so. $200 in shipping, labor, and parts buys the 336...

mopac · 2022-10-22T10:32:57-0400

Great price. I will be wanting more than that for mine. You got a deal. Does it have
large motor?

Large motor, pul-mor tires/wheels.

mopac · 2022-10-22T14:07:52-0400

200 is a deal. Thanks. I have 6 northerns and not a one has pul mor tires. Just my luck.
Good luck with a sale.

Defender · 2022-10-22T14:09:58-0400

I have been looking for a K335. Message me if you have one for sale.

AFGP9 · 2022-10-24T15:52:26-0400

Mopac if you haven't already been told, (I may have missed it), those lamp posts are Marx. I have 3. Also picked up that K-Line manual at a train show. Like new.

I hear it is the best repair manual. Glad to have it. Tom told me the street lights were Marx. They are cool. I don't know
what years they were made. Heavy metal. They look like from 20s and 30s to me. I will set them next to a station.

AmFlyer · 2022-10-24T21:47:29-0400

The 429 Marx street lamps were cataloged from 1952 to 1955.
Here is one pictured with its OB and track clip.

I sure missed the years on the street lights.

AmFlyer · 2022-10-25T00:32:46-0400

My original guess was pre-war as well, they do not look like something designed in the 1950's.

mopac · 2022-11-23T19:27:38-0500

Finally got some pics of the loco in the big heavy box from Many Cool Toys. Nice paint
cab numbers and tender lettering. Everything there except the cross bar under the cab that the tender hooks up to. Not my only K5 with that missing.
