Silverhawk74 Pillar of the Community United States 3670 Posts	Posted 10/23/2011 3:56 pm I said I was gonna sell my items which are made with Pm's to add more Pm's, like gold or silver. I know I am a ranter, but you gotta read it all, lol.... Tough situation once your out of school, and the safety patrol and hall monitor jobs are a thing of the past eh, lol. JK Ken-Northern most section of Georgia.... Mk, beginner train you say, and it is about 45 years old, which will be perfect for me, as I know next to nothing about trains. Even though I did have an early 80's Lionel I got for Christmas when I was real young, say 6 or 7, and I recall hooking it up and running it around, great childhood memories there....

GRR Valued Member United States 310 Posts	Posted 10/23/2011 10:09 pm I have a 1939 Lionel set. It was bought for my dad's first Christmas. Haven't set it up in probably 10 years, but we used to always put it up at Christmas time when I was growing up. Found the set on ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lionel-Prew...em19c9729fb5 My dad must have added a red dump car because I don't see that in the auction. Report this Post to the Staff
Silverhawk74 Pillar of the Community United States 3670 Posts	Posted 10/24/2011 7:51 pm That is one great post war Lionel GRR, and some great pictures! way out of my price range for now, but I am sure the hard core collectors of the post war stuff are plotting to get it, lol.... It must be real rare to find that Sears tin train set, in that solid of condition. As I would figure not too many of those survived, being made of tin and all. As one would think they are pretty fragile. Again, I know next to nothing about trains, but I am sure MK, could add some great info on that rare set. Good luck with it!

Silverhawk74 Pillar of the Community United States 3670 Posts	Posted 10/26/2011 6:28 pm What do you think about this one MK, in the link below, way over priced I figure? What do you think of this most rare complete Norfolk an Western set I found. It seems the engine came out in 1980, and the rest of the cars came out over the next 10 years or so. First one I found with all the cars, man that is one of the nicest looking trains I think I have found yet. I am sure this one is way over priced.... http://www.ebay.com/itm/37054791060....m1438.l2649 This guy above has ever train many company's ever made I bet, amazing collection. Two 17 grand sets, pre war and 70's through 2000, and the post war collection is listed at 80 grand, lol. A train museum needless to say I have found here, the train king, lol.... I also grabbed another train an coal car. A 1980 8002 Lionel 2-8-4 Union Pacific Berkshire steam engine and tender, real close to dead mint, C-9 it was listed. I got it for 175 total, and they seem to list for about $325 in similar shape with box, so a good buy I'm amateur O, lol. A real beauty of a train....

GRR Valued Member United States 310 Posts	Posted 10/27/2011 12:28 pm It wasn't my personal set on ebay. I have mine at home. Was just saying the one in the auction is the same set. We have a few more cars. A red dump car for sure. Report this Post to the Staff
Silverhawk74 Pillar of the Community United States 3670 Posts	Posted 11/02/2011 6:52 pm Alright guys, I am real excited to see what looks like some great train sets in this new batch of pictures for the Estate sale#2 this Friday.... http://etnestatesales.com/upcoming-...-part-1.html If you see any items of major interest in these NEW PICTURES, or something you think I can do real well on, let me know an I will pick it up. Also, if anyone sees something they would like, let me know an if I can get if for a fair price an you cover that an shipping, then I will grab it for ya! I already spotted a Hersey train set that will go for maybe 150 to 175 on ebay if MIB, and a Crescent limited edition Lionel, a great green colored train I know from research, even though there is just a picture of the title an foam insert it is in. They are asking 250, they go for buy it nows mint with all the box for 325, so that is way to high. I will have to make a fair offer for a bundle lot that I put together on the fly, lol.... I also see a Lionel Southern Express set that does not seem to be bringing much on the two I found on ebay, and a rare 1996 Holiday express Santa train set, that is listed at 140. I can get it for 100 I am sure, an this older sets lists on ebay for 375 buy it now an 25 shipping, and there is one running on auction that is up to 150 on 20 bids, as those are the only two from 1996 I could fine. The modern ones go for 200 an 25 more shipping. It seems to be popular, esp with Christmas, so I am going for it at 100 bucks. There is another great Bachmann set behind others I can't see, and a bunch of old die-cast cars an planes from the 80's back to the 40's or 50's. So there has to be some diamonds in the ruff in these pictures so to speak.... MK buddy, I need your advice on anything you see in the train pictures more than ever my friend, thanks much!
