HO Scale Model RR Collection

Systems
Systems Posts: 14,873
I've decided to sell off my collection. 25 years of collecting HO scale model railroad items. Not junk stuff here. If you or anyone you know might be interested I have 70+ brass engines and rolling stock. Tons of detail parts. Loads of regearing and remotoring supplies. 500+ decals and so on. I also have higher end plastic rolling stock and engines. I'm a modeler. Not someone who goes to Hobbytown and buys out of the box crap to put on the track. These aren't toys. Let me know please. PM's please if interested.

    You could pick a few reasonably priced cool pieces and post pics. Someone might be into it if they could see the stuff.

    will do tomorrow. I'm in the process of catalogging and taking pics. But 25 years of stuff will take a while. But I can get up some of the more rare and nicely collected stuff tomorrow. Thanks.

    A few pictures. All painted by myself with details added as needed. All in original boxes with documents they came with. Some finished, some under construction. I have many more models in plastic and brass painted and undecorated. Samhongsa trucks, OMI & NWSL can motors as well as other makes. OMI drive systems and RPP shells with and without chassis. Too much to list. Shays, camp cars, log buggies, MOW sets, OLD Walthers kits, Ambroid, Silver Streak, Campbell and so on. Enjoy and let me know what you may be looking for. Most brass steam is pretty much universal for all roads.

    Trains are cool, even if you just get a few pieces and set them on some track over the fireplace...

    The Ultra RARE SRR Articulated Hoppers by NWSL is really cool as are all the engines and switchers. Are you sure you want to sell this stuff? :)

    Thanks,
    I have to. Money is a big issue right now. Besides, I have about $200k in my collection and only selling duplicates of what I can part with. The Crown Brass models will never leave my possesion. I have a 1958 Toby N&W "J" Class I will NEVER part with. Only 2 left in the world and handcrafted by the man himself. Value is around $30k but the Brown Book tries to put a price on it every issue and can't do it with only 2 left.

    Jim, the Sunset 2-8-2, Empire Midland 2-8-2, Alco 0-6-0 all would fit ACL. I have SD38-2 from ALCO Models would also work. (Undecorated Samhongsa Drive) I have F Units that would also work (Undecorated) FT Units also undecorated. Many primed or undecorated plastic passenger cars. Lots more that would fit the bill.

    Saw the Sharks A & B. If you do want to part with them how do you intend on listing these for sale, do you have a price in mind. Thank s

    Hi this is Eddie it was by chance that I came across your posting and I joined the site to ask you about some of your models. Mainly I am interested in these BP20 diesels. I've been looking for these for many years and haven't seen any until yours. Can you send me an email with detailed infor on them. Like price engine rebuild and so on? oh and i almost forgot do u have any PRR electrics?..like E44's , P5A's and so on?..Thanks again
