This was not my collection, it was given to me. I had trains as a kid and probably will get some again when my kids have moved out. Until then space and a few bucks is currently needed.
I came here first because I know good forums when I see them, and I would personally rather sell them to people who want them at a fair price verses listing them to ebay. Also knowing that what I have is going to someone who appreciates it and will use it is worth a few bucks I might make by selling to highest bidder.
This a set that is centered around a Philadelphia theme train wise. Many pieces are still in original container as this is whats left of a previous build somewhat, and start of a new larger build.
I have I believe 70 pieces pictured here in my photobucket account. I have some things in the album labeled, some not. I do have all of it on a handwritten list. Some pieces will not be separated.
There is quite a bit more, including a crate of track, and about 5-6 more un-opened life-like scenes, some electrical track stuff, bunch of magazines and books, simple wooden bridges, landscaping stuff..etc etc. My camera battery died but I have a list.
I don't necessarily have a set price on any particular item, and for the short term will consider first come first fair offer wins. I say this because if you are interested in buying a few pieces for like a package deal I don't want to cut out a person because they only want 1 particular piece.
I also don't honestly know what every little thing is actually worth, I'm counting on a bit of honesty from more knowledgeable train people. I'm also a highly skilled craftsman by trade so I know what crap is vs something good.
Please post here or send me pm with either the picture or description of what your interested in. Shipping is your dime.
If I do sell things to a good home here, I will have no problem making a donation to the forum to help support your hobby. I might need some good advice from here in 2025.
Thank you.
